Synopsis

Detroit We Dey

The plot

Detroit We Dey examines the history and future of a social club founded by a community of Nigerians who immigrated to Detroit in the 70s and 80s. Through the establishment of social clubs, these immigrants are redefining ideas of home and community within their adopted homelands. But as the pandemic disrupts how members physically gather and the association grapples with the realities of an aging membership, new anxieties of traditions and history being lost to time emerge and the hopes of building a sustainable future hangs in the balance.
