Description
Deep in the Amazon lies Fordlândia, a failed industrial project from the early 20th century. Founded by the legendary automobile manufacturer Henry Ford, it was intended to become an industrial town in the Brazilian rainforest. This episode tells the story of an attempt to implant the American Dream in the Amazon — and of its failure in the face of nature, culture and hubris. A story about belief in progress, outside control and the traces utopian visions leave behind.
