A Florida woman was shot dead in 2023 after a noise dispute; her neighbor, who invoked Stand Your Ground, was convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to 25 years.
A documentary about the 2023 fatal shooting of 35-year-old Black woman Ajike Owens by her white neighbor Susan Lorincz in Marion County, Florida, has been nominated for an Oscar.
Directed by Geeta Gandbhir, the film uses unedited police body-cam and dashboard footage showing Lorincz’s repeated complaints about neighborhood children and her escalating behavior.
Owens was shot through a locked door during a dispute over noise.
Lorincz invoked Florida’s Stand Your Ground law, was arrested four days later, convicted of manslaughter in August 2024, and sentenced to 25 years.
The film, which features no interviews and relies solely on raw recordings, portrays a multiracial community striving for peace amid one individual’s racially charged fear and access to firearms.
It has been praised for its authenticity and emotional impact, drawing comparisons to scripted thrillers while highlighting systemic issues around race, gun laws, and justice.
