One Nation Under A Grave explores the magick of 'Brexit' as a far-right coup. The film considers the referendum question 'Leave or Remain?' as a device converting economic crisis into fascist opportunity, nudging us from class war toward race war. In the process the film imagines a different kind of 'us versus them', a different exodus from a failing state.
