East Kilbride and Santiago, Nae Pasaran!
The motion
That the Parliament notes that Nae Pasaran! won Best Film at the 2018 Scottish BAFTAs; further notes that the film tells the previously little-known story of Bob Fulton, Robert Somerville, Stuart Barrie, John Keenan and their fellow workers at the Rolls Royce factory in East Kilbride who defied the regime of the dictator, General Pinochet, in Chile by refusing to repair engines from Chilean Airforce planes; recognises the dedication, commitment and skill of Producer and Director, Felipe Bustos Sierra, in recording this piece of industrial history and international solidarity between Scotland and Chile, through meticulous research in both countries and by public fundraising to complete the full-length feature after the success of the short documentary; congratulates all those who were involved in ensuring that this film was made, and looks forward to viewing the future work of Felipe Bustos Sierra.
