NYPD: Biggest Gang in New York?

Directed by
Runtime
45 min
Documentary

Synopsis

Following the shooting of five Dallas police officers, BBC Three examines the growing tension between American police forces and ethnic minorities. Filmed on the streets of New York, the documentary follows "Cop Watchers"—individuals who monitor the NYPD in a cat-and-mouse effort to record arrests and potential instances of brutality. NYPD officers also share their perspectives, claiming systemic racism and alleging that ethnic minority communities are targeted to meet arrest quotas.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 13

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
