About this event
In May 2021, a UK Home Office dawn raid triggers one of the most spontaneous and successful acts of civil resistance in recent memory. In Pollokshields, Scotland’s most diverse neighbourhood, hundreds of residents rush to the streets to stop the deportation of their neighbours. Everybody to Kenmure Street is an intense, ground-level, and ultimately joyous account of the standoff with the police and the UK Home Office. The film celebrates collective action, looking to the stories that led to that day and the historic events that have shaped this community. Winner: Sundance World Cinema Documentary Special Jury Award for Civil Resistance. All profits from the film will go to support refugees and asylum seekers through the Easton Cowfolk Asylum Seekers and Refugees Players fund. Doors 7.30pm Film 8pm
