Synopsis
An inspiring documentary that took home the Special Jury Award for Civil Resistance at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival, Everybody to Kenmure Street from BAFTA winning director Felipe Bustos Sierra (Nae Pasaran), captures the dawn immigration raid that sparked an unprecedented community uprising in Glasgow in 2021.
On May 13, 2021, on the first day of Eid-al-Fitr, a Home Office immigration raid targeted a diverse residential street in Pollokshields, Glasgow, ripping two local men away from their homes and loading them into a van. Within minutes, word spread fast and more than 2,000 ordinary people had abandoned their daily routines to converge on Kenmure Street, forming a human barrier so the van couldn’t leave, with one protestor (reenacted by Emma Thompson) throwing her body under the van and hugging the axle.
With no plan but to bear witness and defend what was morally right, the eight-hour standoff transformed into a powerful act of solidarity, showcasing the strength of community in the face of forces that would drive them apart.
