It follows the inspirational journey of Govanhill Baths; from closure, grass roots protest and occupation to community ownership. Facing the challenges of the COVID -19 pandemic, Govanhill Baths Community Trust have built innovative solutions to support the community. The Baths is set to reopen as a Wellbeing Centre in 2022.

OURS is a short film by Written in Film, with assistance from award-winning filmmaker Patrick Rooney. It was commissioned by Community Land Scotland as part of their Urban Journeys in Community Ownership project and supported by The Stove Network.
