Directed by award-winning filmmaker Stephen McGee, Resurgo has captivated audiences with its powerful, human-centered portrait of Detroit’s rebirth, one rooted not in buildings, but in people. Resurgo won Best Feature Documentary at the Fresh Coast Film Festival in Marquette in October, 2025. Here is a link to the official website: www.TheDetroitFilm.com .
Resurgo offers a bold counter-narrative to outdated portrayals of Detroit as a city defined by decay. Instead, it centers the lived experiences, creativity, and resilience of Detroiters themselves. The film underscores that Detroit’s revival is not only physical, it's cultural, generational, and profoundly human.
Beyond its cinematic release, Resurgo is envisioned as an evolving, interactive archive, with plans for web-based storytelling platforms and large-scale exhibitions. The film is quickly becoming a catalyst for reframing Detroit’s image locally, nationally, and internationally, an opportunity to “take back the narrative” and celebrate Detroit’s true identity.
Following exceptional turnout and community enthusiasm, Emagine is proud to expand access to this important Detroit story.
