Conducting a dawn raid, two long-standing residents are arrested for alleged immigration violations and face deportation. Word of the raid goes out almost immediately, and students, neighbors, members of the local mosque and others — rush to the area in response. One man forces his way under the van to prevent it from leaving. Dozens, hundreds, and then thousands of people pour in, filming, chanting, and blockading the van in solidarity</span></p><p class="p2" style="margin: 0px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-language-override: normal; font-kerning: auto; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-feature-settings: normal; font-variation-settings: normal; font-stretch: normal; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; font-family: Helvetica; min-height: 19px;"><span class="s1" style="letter-spacing: 0.1px;"></span><br></p><p class="p1" style="margin: 0px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-language-override: normal; font-kerning: auto; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-feature-settings: normal; font-variation-settings: normal; font-stretch: normal; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; font-family: Helvetica;"><span class="s1" style="letter-spacing: 0.1px;">From executive producer Emma Thompson and director Felipe Bustos Sierra, EVERYBODY TO KENMURE STREET chronicles this event through interviews with people who were there, and using footage shot throughout the day. Told from multiple viewpoints, the film captures the chaos and confusion — but also a sense of joy, celebration, and the power of community. The mosque opens its doors for people who need a washroom. Supporters turn up, passing around pizzas, water, and snacks.</span></p><p class="p2" style="margin: 0px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-language-override: normal; font-kerning: auto; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-feature-settings: normal; font-variation-settings: normal; font-stretch: normal; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; font-family: Helvetica; min-height: 19px;"><span class="s1" style="letter-spacing: 0.1px;"></span><br></p><p class="p1" style="margin: 0px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-size-adjust: none; font-language-override: normal; font-kerning: auto; font-optical-sizing: auto; font-feature-settings: normal; font-variation-settings: normal; font-stretch: normal; font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; font-family: Helvetica;"><span class="s1" style="letter-spacing: 0.1px;">Thompson herself appears in the film, re-creating the role of the so-called Van Man, and Bustos Sierra places the events of the day in the broader context of centuries of labor activism and direct action by the people of Glasgow.<span class="Apple-converted-space">&nbsp; </span>EVERYBODY TO KENMURE STREET tells a remarkable story of resistance, community care, and the power of everyday people coming together to fight injustice.</span></p>DocumentaryPT1H39M2026-07-18GBen
