Iron Ladies is a new documentary about the inspirational working-class women who were the backbone of the 84/85 Miners' Strike, as told by them.

From Scotland down to Kent, women from the coalfields shed light on their experiences of the year long struggle against the British state, trying to save their communities.

With many of the women in the film still active today, the reviews are calling it 'inspirational' and 'essential'.

It’s showing on the 28th November at Chesterfield Studios, along with a Q&A with our local 'Iron Ladies'. https://www.chesterfieldstudios.co.uk/what-s-on
