Scottish Documentary Institute presents a gripping true crime watch.

In a quiet, close-knit neighbourhood, one woman’s relentless calls to the police over children at play ignite a slow-burning conflict. Constructed entirely from police body-cam footage, 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘗𝘦𝘳𝘧𝘦𝘤𝘵 𝘕𝘦𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘣𝘰𝘳 reassembles raw recordings into a chilling portrait of everyday American warfare. This Sundance sensation exposes how fear, power, and disconnection fracture communities, revealing the profound human cost when trust erodes.

Innovative. Gripping. Urgently relevant. If you’re drawn to bold documentary storytelling with the tension of true crime, this one is for you!

The screening will have a 5-minute recorded introduction and a short Q&A with director Geeta Gandbhir.
