Felipe Bustos Sierra’s documentary covering this event, Everybody to Kenmure Street, is fairly unremarkable in form, but it works hard to accomplish more than retelling history. Go to Full Review

David H May 26 Brilliant documentary very applicable to ICE, even though it's about Home Office Immigration in Glasgow Scotland! (I missed the first 10 minutes, for inadequately-documented location of theater—which I'll explain down-survey.) See more Stephen C @bob25009 May 22 Real footage in 1 hour and 38 minutes.
