    EXCELLENT
    For an outsider, living on the other side of the big pond, this is a very well made historical documentary about the infamous(back then) south bronx parts of the nyc,usa.

    i, the grumpy old man do remember news reels on the norwegian state tv channel about the race fights and demolition through fire tactics back then when i was young. so this was in fact a reviving story about the mismanaged new york policy makers back then, tearing down a whole sosciety instead of reinforcing it.

    its a recommended documentary, and the only drawback is that it shouldve gone even wider and deeper and prolonged into a feature film length playtime, because new york history are like magic.
