A NEW documentary from the director of Nae Pasaran sheds light on the events of the Kenmure Street protest in 2021 and the wider history of resistance.
“It’s hard to find positive news that’s not quite twee, or just cute but in a sort of ineffectual way,” he said. “But this was good news. As well as an exploration of the events and people at Kenmure Street, the film will chart the many threads leading to and from it. Producer Ciara Barry explains: “It starts from that day of protest, then the film will look beyond that day.”
‘This allows us to tell a much bigger story of the protests that have shaped the lives and fates of those involved, and of history repeating itself over centuries in a small geographical space. According to Barry: “Crowdfunding campaigns feel integral to documentary filmmaking these days. It’s an amazing chance to connect with your audience.“When you’re making a documentary you can connect with the people who respond to the material we have so far. It’s nice to get an idea of what this meant to a lot of people.”
The new film’s title comes from messages circulating in WhatsApp groups and video messages throughout the day. According to the director, it is what “won the day”.
