Columbus premiere screening of Felipe Bustos Sierra's documentary 'Everybody to Kenmure Street', part of the Unorthodocs Shorts program at the Wexner Center.
Wexner Center for the Arts is bringing the Columbus premiere of Everybody to Kenmure Street to the screen on Sunday, October 25, from 1:45 to 4:30 PM. The documentary is directed by Felipe Bustos Sierra and is part of the Unorthodocs Shorts program, which runs as part of the center's annual festival of creative nonfiction filmmaking.
The film follows a Scottish community's collective action to stop the detainment and deportation of two immigrants in their neighborhood. It's built around thousands of hours of footage from an eight-hour standoff that began on a May morning in Glasgow in 2021—the first day of Eid—when UK immigration officers removed two Sikh men from their home. From there, the movie weaves together many different perspectives on the standoff and the community's response to it.
To protect the identities of the people involved, Sierra uses performers Emma Thompson and Kate Dickie to reenact the testimonies of two specific figures: the man who slid under the van and the nurse who attended to him. The film won a Special Jury Award for Civil Resistance at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival.
