Everybody To Kenmure Street         5 suns

In the category of World Cinema Documentary comes the story of a community coming together to save undocumented immigrants from deportation.  In 2021 the UK police executed a dawn raid in a neighborhood in Glasgow, Scotland, picking up two men from their home and loading them in a police van for deportation to their home countries.  Before they could leave though, a spontaneous crowd of neighbors appeared in the streets and in an act of civil disobedience they formed obstacles and demanded that the men be freed.  Since this happened in the age of social media there was plenty of video recording being taken and word spread through the surrounding area.  The movie combines the video footage with narration from witnesses and some reenactment of events.  The film could not be more relevant to what is happening in the US today with the current administration.  It shows what can be accomplished with peaceful resistance to a tyrannical government. The movie is inspiring and moving.
