Britain's cost-of-living crisis reopens the independence question in Scotland. This DW Documentary follows musician Neil Mackay, a longtime independence campaigner who organizes large demonstrations drawing thousands onto the streets, and single mother Sandra MacPherson, who describes stretching a tight budget through a winter of rising energy and food prices. First Minister Nicola Sturgeon and her SNP government want a fresh independence referendum, but the film lays out the legal wall they hit in November 2022, when the UK Supreme Court ruled that any new vote needs Westminster's approval. Supporters of independence blame the British government for Scotland's economic pain; opponents blame Holyrood instead. Interviews on both sides trace how the argument over who is responsible for the crisis has become inseparable from the argument over whether Scotland should leave the UK altogether, echoing the divisions Brexit left behind. The film captures the atmosphere on the ground rather than settling the debate.
