I recommend finding this movie and giving it a watch. Set in a dying ex-mining town in the north of England, an area left in poverty by decades of Thatcherism and austerity. This movie provides a glimmer of hope in the face of the rise of Reform UK, and their similar ilk around the world. It provides inspiration and hope that community can endure in the face of hardship.
A pub landlord in a previously thriving mining community struggles to hold onto his pub. Meanwhile, tensions rise in the town when Syrian refugees are placed in the empty houses in the community.
