Stone of Destiny is a feature film from Canada, the first country to address the subject of modern Scottish nationalism. There’s some history here; Braveheart and Rob Roy both positioned Scots as rugged heroes and the English as snivelling villains, and audiences worldwide took this vision to their hearts. Smith’s film comes closer to the present day, depicting the Scottish National Party supporters who removed the stone of destiny from Westminster Abbey in 1950, and brought it back to Scotland, as heroes of reclaimed nationhood.
