Nae Pasaran is a 2018 documentary directed by Felipe Bustos Sierra about a group of workers at a Rolls-Royce factory in East Kilbride, Scotland, who refused to work on Chilean Air Force parts from 1974-78 due to the atrocities carried out in Chile by the Pinochet dictatorship. The feature-length film was expanded from an earlier 2013 short film by the same name, funded through the Scottish Documentary Institute's Bridging the Gap programme. The film was the last programme broadcast on the new BBC Scotland channel's first day on air and was rebroadcast on the same channel on 4 May and 20 October 2019 and on 21 November 2020.
