Documentary Film Series with Kate: Tower

Documentary Film Series with Kate: Tower In-Person

Join our Reference Librarian, Kate, for a Friday matinee showing of a thought provoking documentary.

On Aug. 1, 1966, a sniper rode the elevator to the top floor of the University of Texas Tower and opened fire, holding the campus hostage for 96 minutes. When the gunshots were finally silenced, the toll included 16 dead, three dozen wounded, and a shaken nation left trying to understand what had happened. Archival footage is combined with rotoscopic animation in a dynamic, never-before-seen way to illustrate the action-packed untold stories of the witnesses, heroes and survivors.
