The Best of the Best: Jazz from Detroit Documentary Film is a landmark double portrait of Detroit’s extraordinary jazz legacy and the dynamic city that produced it. The film chronicles the defining influence of Detroit’s innovative musicians on jazz history, while also tracing the dramatic rise and fall of the city as an industrial power, the struggles and triumphs of its creative and resilient African American community, and the profound tradition of mentorship that has nurtured Detroit jazz since the 1950s. It makes the case that you can’t tell the history of jazz without telling the history of jazz from Detroit.
