On Hogmanay 1929, 71 children died in Britains worst cinema disaster. Buried behind the walls of a furniture shop in Paisleys town centre the Glen Cinema and its tragic story have been rediscovered.

As the town commemorates the disaster, for the first time in 75 years, survivors and witnesses recall the horror they were told to forget.

Commissioned for BBC Scotlands EX:S, The Glen Cinema Disaster mixes dramatic reconstruction, archive footage and emotional witness testimony.
