The mesmerizing rotoscopic animation—punctuated by nerve-wracking rifle shots and, subsequently, the color red overflowing the screen—effectively suggests the eerie atmosphere of first bewilderment and then horror that came to engulf surviving victims, witnesses, concerned armed and unarmed citizens, and others present. Tower succeeds mightily as dramatic re-enactment, oral history, and journalistic enquiry.
