Detroit is a fact-based drama set during the 1967 Detroit riots, where a group of rogue police officers respond to a complaint with retaliatory violence instead of seeking justice. The film focuses on the Algiers Motel incident, where several African American men and two white women were brutally interrogated and tortured by the police.

Directed by Kathryn Bigelow and written by Mark Boal, the film explores themes of racism, police brutality, and the abuse of power. It features a talented ensemble cast, including John Boyega, Will Poulter, Algee Smith, and Anthony Mackie, who deliver powerful performances that bring the harrowing events to life.

Detroit has been praised for its intense and gripping storytelling, as well as its attention to detail in recreating the atmosphere of the 1960s. It offers a thought-provoking and emotional examination of a dark chapter in American history, shedding light on the systemic issues that continue to plague society today.

With its compelling narrative and powerful performances, Detroit is a must-watch for those interested in historical dramas that tackle important social issues.
