For too long, Hollywood has reduced Detroit to tired tropes of urban decay. Now, filmmakers Michael John Dunker and Alex Ruiz are changing that narrative with “Love & Detroit,” a feature film that aims to show audiences a more realistic view of the city they know and love.

Written by Dunker & Ruiz, “Love & Detroit” centers on a Detroit real estate agent who makes a fateful choice after his third cancer diagnosis: Taking a controversial drug that will end his life the next time he sleeps. During his final day, an unexpected reunion with his middle school sweetheart forces him to reexamine everything he thought he knew about what makes life worth living. Ruiz will star in the film with Dunker directing.

Ruiz was born in Mexico and grew up in metro Detroit before building a successful career in American TV and Latin American telenovelas – he’s held prominent roles in Telemundo’s ¿Quién es quién? Amazon’s Bosch and FOX’s 9-1-1: Lone Star. For him – this project is a chance to create something personal after two decades in the industry. “I speak perfect English, perfect Spanish. So, it’s like this weird area where I would think that I would get a ton of jobs, especially here in Hollywood, but it’s still not there,” says Ruiz. “I want to show that all these years that I’ve had with acting that this [film] is a good shot.”

"We knew we wanted wanted to showcase Detroit in a differ- ent way, and we knew we needed to make some kind of independent film that would make a big splash,” says filmmaker Michael J Dunker, who spent nearly three years writing and raising funds for his passion project, “Love & Detroit.”
“We knew we wanted to showcase Detroit in a differ- ent way, and we knew we needed to make some kind of independent film that would make a big splash,” says filmmaker Michael J Dunker, who spent nearly three years writing and raising funds for his passion project, “Love & Detroit.”

The script evolved through years of collaboration between Dunker, who lends his photographer’s eye as an in-demand set photographer for feature films and commercials, and Ruiz, whose acting experience helps breathe life into the characters. “I always wrote it with Alex in mind,” says Dunker. Their partnership thrives on their different perspectives. While Dunker crafts the story’s framework, Ruiz ensures the characters ring true. “I’m reading every part as an actor,” Ruiz explains, “focusing on dialogue and how the characters would feel and speak.”

For both creators, “Love & Detroit” represents something deeper than just another film. “When you start touching base with those who are dying, when you’ve held their hand, none of the material things matter. Really, the only thing that matters is your relationships in this life,” reflects Dunker, who drew from personal experience while writing the script. “The most personal part of this story is I did reconnect with the love of my life. As I was writing this, I’m like, ‘If I only had one day with this girl, that would be enough.’”

The community has already shown its support, with the filmmakers raising $200,000 from friends and family. Even iconic Detroit establishments have embraced the project: “The first person that signed up was National Coney Island,” Dunker shares. “They’re like, ‘This is great. Whatever you need from us, you have our whole restaurant.’”

Yet to complete their vision, they face a minimum of a $300,000 gap to reach their total budget of $500,000 to $1 million. “We do have good people lined up. We have good producers lined up. We have a good first Assistant Director who worked on Everything Everywhere All At Once… We just don’t want to go in and not pay them anything. We want good cameras. We want good production… We don’t want to get three weeks into filming and realize we can’t edit this movie because we don’t have enough money left.”

Despite the funding gap, Dunker and Ruiz maintain optimism in Detroit’s tradition of supporting homegrown art. “We truly believe that there’s an investor in Detroit that wants to go on this ride,” Dunker says. For a story so deeply rooted in Detroit, they believe the right partners are here in their hometown, waiting to help tell this story the way it deserves to be told, and they are offering multiple ways to be part of their vision. “Do a tax write-off, be part of this,” Dunker invites. “Bring your family out to set, come be an extra—we’re gonna need to fill that Coney Island.”

For those unable to contribute financially, the filmmakers emphasize that spreading the word is equally valuable. Each person who shares their story helps build momentum for a project that aims to challenge how Detroit is portrayed, and how we think about the moments that give meaning to life’s biggest decisions.

With the script written, Dunker and Ruiz are finalizing casting for the film’s love interest and aiming to secure remaining funds in 2025. Ruiz remains hopeful. “I still believe that if you’re talented enough and confident enough of what you’re able to do, then you’re going to get a call.” Dunker is betting big on the film, too. “If I sell a script, I’m gonna take all that money and put it into this film. This is what I’m here for… If this is the only thing I say about this world, this is what I want to send out. This is my baby and I’m gonna see it through. And Alex is the best co-pilot to go on this with.”

Cineastas regresan a Detroit para desafiar la visión de Hollywood

Durante mucho tiempo, Hollywood ha reducido Detroit a los estereotipos trillados de decadencia urbana. Ahora, los cineastas Michael John Dunker y Alex Ruiz cambiarán esa narrativa con “Love & Detroit”, un largometraje que busca mostrar al público una visión más realista de la ciudad que aman.

Escrita por Dunker y Ruiz, “Love & Detroit” se centra en un agente inmobiliario de Detroit que toma una decisión crucial tras su tercer diagnóstico de cáncer: tomar un controvertido medicamento que acabará con su vida la próxima vez que duerma. Durante su último día, un reencuentro inesperado con su amor de la secundaria lo obliga a reexaminar todo lo que creía saber sobre que es lo que hace que la vida valga la pena. Ruiz protagonizará la película, dirigida por Dunker.

Ruiz nació en México y creció en el área metropolitana de Detroit antes de forjar una exitosa carrera en la televisión estadounidense y las telenovelas latinoamericanas; ha tenido papeles destacados en ¿Quién es quién?, de Telemundo. Bosch de Amazon y 9-1-1: Lone Star de FOX. Para él, este proyecto es una oportunidad para crear algo personal tras dos décadas en la industria. “Hablo inglés y español a la perfección. Así que es como un área extraña donde pensaría que conseguiría un montón de trabajos, especialmente aquí en Hollywood, pero aún no lo consigo”, dice Ruiz. “Quiero demostrar que, durante todos estos años de actuación, esta película tiene buenas posibilidades”.

El guion evolucionó a lo largo de años de colaboración entre Dunker, quien aporta su viión como fotógrafo de set muy solicitado para largometrajes y anuncios, y Ruiz, cuya experiencia como actor ayuda a dar vida a los personajes. “Siempre lo escribí pensando en Alex”, dice Dunker. Su colaboración se nutre de sus diferentes perspectivas. Mientras Dunker crea la estructura de la historia, Ruiz se asegura de que los personajes suenen auténticos. “Leo cada parte como un actor”, explica Ruiz, “centrándome en el diálogo y en cómo se sentirían y hablarían los personajes”. Para ambos creadores, “Love & Detroit” representa algo más profundo que una simple película. “Cuando empiezas a conectar con quienes están muriendo, cuando les has dado la mano, nada material importa. En realidad, lo único que importa son tus relaciones en esta vida”, reflexiona Dunker, quien se inspiró en su experiencia personal al escribir el guion. “Lo más personal de esta historia es que reencontré con el amor de mi vida. Mientras escribía esto, pensé: ‘Si tan solo tuviera un día con esta chica, sería suficiente’”.

La comunidad ya ha mostrado su apoyo, y los cineastas han recaudado 200.000 dólares de amigos y familiares. Incluso establecimientos emblemáticos de Detroit han acogido el proyecto: “El primero en apuntarse fue National Coney Island”, comparte Dunker. “Dicen: ‘Esto es genial. Para lo que necesiten de nosotros, tienen todo nuestro restaurante’”.

Aún así, para completar su visión, se enfrentan a un déficit de al menos 300.000 dólares para alcanzar su presupuesto total de entre 500.000 y 1 millón de dólares. “Tenemos buen personal. Tenemos buenos productores. Tenemos un buen primer asistente de dirección que trabajó en Everything Everywhere All At Once… Simplemente no queremos ir y no pagarles nada. Queremos buenas cámaras. Queremos una buena producción… No queremos llegar a las tres semanas de rodaje y darnos cuenta de que no podemos editar esta película porque no nos queda dinero”.

A pesar del déficit de financiación, Dunker y Ruiz se mantienen optimistas respecto a la tradición de Detroit de apoyar el arte local. “Realmente creemos que hay un inversor en Detroit que quiere sumarse a este proyecto”, afirma Dunker. Para una historia tan arraigada en Detroit, creen que los socios adecuados están aquí, en su ciudad natal, esperando ayudar a contarla como se merece. Ofrecen múltiples maneras de formar parte de su visión. “Deduce tus impuestos, participa”, invita Dunker. “Trae a tu familia al set, ven a ser un extra; vamos a tener que llenar ese Coney Island”.

Para quienes no puedan contribuir económicamente, los cineastas enfatizan que difundir la noticia es igualmente valioso. Cada persona que comparte su historia impulsa un proyecto que busca desafiar la forma en que se representa Detroit y nuestra percepción de los momentos que dan sentido a las decisiones más importantes de la vida.

Los cineastas crearon el video en otoño de 2024 para mostrar su visión y potencial comercial a posibles inversionistas

Con el guion escrito, Dunker y Ruiz están finalizando el casting del interés romántico de la película y aspiran a conseguir los fondos restantes en 2025. Ruiz mantiene la esperanza. “Sigo creyendo que si tienes el talento y la confianza suficientes en lo que puedes hacer, te van a llamar”. Dunker también apuesta fuerte por la película. Si vendo un guion, voy a usar todo ese dinero para invertirlo en esta película. Para eso estoy aquí… Si esto es lo único que digo sobre este mundo, esto es lo que quiero transmitir. Este es mi proyecto y lo llevaré hasta el final. Y Alex es el mejor copiloto con el que puedo contar.
