On Monday 5 August last year the Chicago Sun Times newspaper carried this headline: 鈥淪even deaths, 46 wounded in Chicago Weekend Shootings.鈥� It was referring to the casualty list after one summer weekend in Chicago. This programme reconstructs those three days. Narrated by Clarke Peters (The Wire鈥檚 Detective Lester Freamon), and with a specially composed music and sound design, this immersive documentary uses the words of the city newspaper updates on the violence, alongside eyewitness accounts and the sad personal stories of relatives and friends who lost loved ones.
