Event Description

Come see Pride presented with stunning 4K laser projection on the big screen in L3!

"When you're in a battle with an enemy that's so much bigger, so much stronger than you, to find out you had a friend you never knew existed, well that's the best feeling in the world."

Pride is based on the beautiful true story of the Lesbians and Gays Support the Miners (LGSM) movement. A group of lesbian and gay activists from London form an unlikely alliance with striking miners in South Wales during the 1984 miners' strike, after both being oppressed by the common evil of Margret Thatcher and her government. Pride is a heartwarming film with a message that is unfortunately very relevant now: solidarity across different marginalised groups of people is so important in today's fight against fascism. Hopefully this watch can instill a bit of hope in those of you feeling demoralised over the current state of the world.

Although Pride is set against a very depressing backdrop, it is a feel good movie at its core. I’m certain you'll spend the whole time either laughing or crying – mostly happy tears I promise. With a banging jukebox soundtrack and a wonderful cast (albeit some iffy Welsh accents), Pride was the film that really made me feel proud as a young queer person and is a must-see British history lesson. [Eleanor Armstrong]
