In 1984 20 year old closet gay Joe hesitantly arrives in London from Bromley for his first Gay Pride march and is taken under the collective wing of a group of gay men and Lesbian Steph, who meet at flamboyant Jonathan and his Welsh partner Gethins Soho bookshop. Not only are gays being threatened by Thatcher but the miners are on strike in response to her pit closures and Northern Irish activist Mark Ashton believes gays and miners should show solidarity. Almost by accident a mini-bus full of gays find themselves in the Welsh village of Onllwyn in the Dulais valley and through their sincere fund raising and Jonathans nifty disco moves persuade most of the community that they are on the same side. When a bigot tries to sabotage the partnership with a tabloid smear Mark turns it back on her with a hugely successful benefit concert to which most of the villagers, now thoroughly in tune with their gay friends, turn up. The miners are defeated and return to work but at the Pride march the following year a vast contingent of miners show up to repay their comrades with their show of support.

Movie Parental Guide

nudity Some men wearing small sexualised clothes in a dance club; a woman pulls an unrealistic dildo out of a drawer and says "What's this?" before collapsing into laughter; a group of women reading a gay porn magazine you can see 2 pictures of naked men (The first part of the scene there is a quick gimps of the two men but in the next scene she turns the book around and you can see the mans penis).
violence A brick and some fireworks are thrown in through a window of a gay bookshop. (Homophobic.) Later a man is strongly implied to have been beaten in a homophobic attack. A woman launches herself at another woman in anger, but is restrained. Brief footage of police clashing with crowds during the Miner's Strike of 1984-5
profanity A few F-words, a couple uses of "shit","arse" and scattered utterances of "faggot" and "dyke."
alcohol Alcohol and Tobacco usage is displayed throughout with a few references to Marijuana but none visually shown on screen and no direct indication of drug usage only slang for the drug such as "grass". Characters are shown drunk once or twice throughout.
frightening Although not a main theme of the film, the fear of AIDS and homophobia looms throughout.
