This blistering new documentary explores the growing confrontation between a feisty 92-year-old Scottish widow and a billionaire seeking to become the most powerful man in the world.

You’ve Been Trumped Too has been primarily filmed over the last 12 months, during the most contentious American presidential election campaign in history. This explosive film explores the growing confrontation between a feisty 92 year-old Scottish widow and her family and a billionaire seeking to become the most powerful man in the world. As the world hangs on every Trump utterance, director Anthony Baxter explores the consequences of his actions.

Michael Forbes and his mother Molly are living in the shadow of the Trump International Golf Links in Aberdeen, Scotland. When they and their neighbours refused to leave the land to make way for development, the Trump Organization initiated a campaign of intimidation and bullying, enlisting even the police to help them. You’ve Been Trumped Too is a unique look at a globally-historic election and a timeless tale of the unlikely encounter between a salt-of-the-earth Scottish family and one of the planet’s richest and most controversial figures.

The Sat 5 Nov screening will be followed by a Q&A with director Anthony Baxter.
