Everybody to Kenmure Street
classified 12A"A vital and inspiring portrait of spontaneous collective action."
- IndieWire
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.
Alongside viral social media clips and retrospective interviews with those involved, the powerful hybrid film also includes dramatic re-enactments where actors (including Emma Thompson, who also acts as a producer) take the place of some of the key players that day.
