Write a short summary of what happens in the film

A city rises from its ruins, with the power of local initiatives exerting a magnetic pull on the creative class in the U.S. Detroit was always tougher, more challenging and wilder than other places. We take a trip to a city full of hope, together with the originator of techno music, Juan Atkins – celebrating 30 years of techno.

Cultural / Context information for the jury

The AUDI brand is about more than cars, it’s about movement. Therefore AUDI presents protagonists who are pioneers. Like Juan Atkins, originator of techno music. Because what most people don't know: Techno wasn't invented in Berlin. Techno started out as Black Music in Detroit.

Tell the jury anything relevant about the edit. Do not name the editor.

The film contains some elements that are usually used in music videos. The cut and the way it plays with timing, time-leaps, speed – all complies with the original music by Juan Atkins used in the film.
