What happens

Scotland Yet is a 2014 documentary film directed by Scottish filmmaker and journalist Jack Foster, and produced by Christopher Silver. The film focuses on the more obscure grassroots elements of the Scottish independence campaign, concentrated primarily on those arguing for a Yes vote in the 2014 referendum; the film's tagline is “a film about independence.” The title of the film alludes to a song by the late Scottish folk singer and songwriter Davy Steele, called ‘Scotland Yet’, written at the time of the 1997 Scottish devolution referendum. Various interpretations of the song feature in the film's soundtrack, created by traditional musicians Rona Wilkie and Marit Fält. Scotland Yet is, to date, the only feature film to have covered the 2014 Scottish independence referendum. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
