Join us for a special screening of , a powerful documentary that tells the true story of four factory workers in East Kilbride, Scotland, who defied the Pinochet dictatorship in Chile by refusing to repair Chilean air force engines in 1974. This act of international solidarity became one of the longest sustained worker-led protests against fascism and military dictatorship in history.
Directed by , Nae Pasaran dives into the political impact of this boycott, highlighting testimonies from victims of the 1973 Chilean coup and even from Chile’s former Air Force chief. The film exposes the ripple effects of global worker solidarity and resistance against authoritarianism.
