Nae Pasaran

In 1974, Rolls-Royce engine inspector Bob Fulton was deeply moved by footage of the recent military coup of General Pinochet in Chile. He was disturbed by images of Chilean Air Force jets bombing Santiago and distraught people crammed into football stadia. When a Chilean Air Force jet engine arrived at Bob's factory in Scotland for maintenance, he refused to let the part go through as a sign of solidarity with the people of Chile. More than 40 years later, documentary filmmaker Felipe Bustos Sierra meets the Scottish pensioners, who stood against one of the most repressive dictatorships of the 20th century, and examines the consequences of their actions at home and abroad.
