Drop Dead City
NYC, 1975 - the greatest city in the world is minutes away from bankruptcy when an unlikely alliance of labor, finance and politics comes together to save the city.
Drop Dead City charts untold history - it is the first documentary devoted to the New York City Fiscal Crisis of 1975, an extraordinary, overlooked episode in urban American history that saw an already crumbling city of 8 million people brought to the edge of bankruptcy and social chaos by a perfect storm of debt, greed, ambitious social policy, and poor governance.
