Refugee Week Double Bill
For Refugee Week 2026, we’re screening two feature documentaries which shed light on Britain’s relationship with migrants, followed by special events designed to deepen understanding of the real people behind these stories.
Hostile, with Q&A
18 June, 6 - 8.20pm
Told through the stories of four participants from Black and Asian backgrounds, this documentary reveals the impact of the evolving ‘hostile environment’ – a term used by the UK government in 2012 to illustrate the atmosphere they wanted to create for migrants, with the intention of provoking them to leave of their own accord. Director Sonita Gale will be joining us for a Q&A following this screening.
Everybody to Kenmure Street, with Anti-Raid Workshops
18 June, 8.30pm - 10.45pm
Following this powerful documentary capturing the moving story of a community’s successful efforts to defend one another and stop the deportation of their neighbours, join Books Against Borders, members of the Action Against Detention & Deportations coalition, alongside grassroots community groups Camden Anti-Raids and the West London Resistance Collective, for a discussion and know-your-rights training on how we as a community can resist these harmful practices, and keep each other safe!
