Maryhill Against Racism* in partnership with Maryhill Burgh Halls Trust are pleased to present a community showing of Everybody to Kenmure Street (12A).

On 13 May 2021, the Home Office staged a dawn raid on Kenmure Street in Pollokshields. Glasgow-based documentarian Felipe Bustos Sierra (director of Nae Pasaran!) takes us right down to street level to show what happened next in his immersive film. He recreates the spontaneous act of civil resistance that sprang up as the multicultural community came together on a shared mission to stop their neighbours’ deportation. Blending crowd-sourced footage with a clever re-enactment featuring verbatim testimony from those who were there, Sierra takes us inside the eight-hour stand-off that demonstrated the power of peaceful solidarity. Everybody to Kenmure Street recently won the Special Jury Award at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival.
