What 16 Shots Is About
The documentary examines the shooting of seventeen year old Laquan McDonald by the police officer Jason Van Dyke in Chicago in 2014 and the effort to cover it up that followed. The dashboard camera footage of the incident was made public only by court order, more than a year later, and it contradicted the official account. The film gives that process, the conduct of the city administration and the reaction on the streets together. The officer was convicted in 2018 of second degree murder and of sixteen separate counts of aggravated battery. The account takes the event not as the decision of one officer but as an institutional matter. The footage itself is used with restraint in the film. Rick Rowley’s ninety two minute American documentary was completed in 2018.
