In this modern day David and Goliath story, a group of Scottish homeowners takes on a tycoon. Donald Trump has bought hundreds of acres in Scotland to build golf courses, a hotel and luxury homes. But residents don’t want to see this environmentally sensitive stretch of coast destroyed.
You've Been Trumped captures the cultural chasm between Trump and a deeply rooted Scottish community. Funny, inspiring and heartbreaking in turns, the film offers a revealing look at the aspiring Republican nominee for US President.
In addition to the screening, celebrated songwriter Jo Mango, who contributed music to The Dark Side of the Green (a TV follow-up to You've Been Trumped, about the continued opposition to Donald Trump's plan to build a colossal golf course on Aberdeenshire coastal wilderness) will perform a short live set and Scottish rapper and social commentator Loki will take part in a post-screening discussion on the pros and perils of regeneration.
