The Palace Cinema

Screening of BAFTA-winner Felipe Bustos Sierra’s documentary about one of Scotland’s most spontaneous and successful acts of civil resistance in recent memory at Broadstairs' Palace Cinema

7pm - followed by a Q&A with director Felipe Bustos Sierra

In May 2021, a UK Home Office dawn raid in the Glasgow district of Pollokshields, one of Scotland’s most diverse neighbourhoods, prompted local residents to rush to the streets to stop the deportation of their neighbours.

As word spread in the early morning of what was Eid celebrations for many locals, a handful of protestors swelled to hundreds of people, flooding Kenmure Street and making it impassable to the immigration enforcement van. The eight-hour stand-off made international headlines as the community organised itself in an extraordinary act of peaceful solidarity.

Executive Produced by Emma Thompson, and featuring music by Barry Burns (Mogwai) and the Glasgow Gaelic Choir. Winner: Sundance Film Festival World Cinema Documentary Special Jury Award for Civil Resistance.
