Resurgo: The Rise From Within

Featuring a post-film Q&A with producers Stephen McGee, Jessica Care Moore, an on-screen subjects.

Resurgo: The Rise from Within is a landmark documentary from director Stephen McGee and poet-producer Jessica Care Moore, created from twenty years of immersive filmmaking in Detroit.

Drawing from millions of photographs and thousands of hours of footage, the film rejects the decades-old national narrative of Detroit as a symbol of decline. Instead, it presents a powerful, people-centered portrait of a city defined by creativity, endurance, and humanity.

Through intimate storytelling, poetic narration, and stunning cinematography, Resurgo reframes Detroit for both longtime residents and global audiences, offering a truer and more dignified reflection of the city’s soul.
