Based on artist Annika Thörn Legzdins's photographs and journalist Anna Tullberg's interviews from Daugavpils and Detroit. In combination with historical image material and factual texts, the story of two cities emerges, which, based on ideological opposites, both embody the rise and fall of the construction of modernist society. The past dreams of the future and how this future has now turned out, are expressed through a choir of interview fragments interwoven with thematic image flows. The geographic situatedness of both the voices and the places has been reduced in order to create a synthesis of two societies. Interspersed passages of red-framed factual pages and historical images demonstrate the similarities between the cities. The book includes an introduction by Alf Rehn, Professor of Innovation, Design, and Management, about the different languages and voices of cities, and about the scars of urban development. The book concludes with a travel account in the form of visual notes from encounters and places.
