Project Overview
Before forensics, DNA, and CSI, we had dollhouses—a collection of miniature crime scenes created to help homicide detectives hone their investigative skills. This award-winning documentary by Minneapolis-based filmmaker and author Susan Marks explores the dioramas and their relationships to modern day forensics.
