🎬 Film Night at the Bar – Tuesday 12th August
We’re trying something new – and we’d love you to be part of it!
Join us on Tuesday 12th August for a relaxed film night at the bar. It’s completely free entry, open to all aged 15 and over (that’s the film rating), and yes – very well-behaved dogs are welcome too 🐶.
We can’t tell you the name of the film (we’re not allowed, but trust us – it’s a good one). Let’s just say it’s a true story about an unlikely friendship between two very different groups in the 1980s. Expect big heart, big hair, and maybe even a few tears.
Hint: Think rainbows, protest signs, and the Welsh valleys… Got it yet? 😉
We’ll have the bar open, you can bring your own snacks, and if you’re able to leave a small donation, that would be lovely — but no pressure at all. The aim is to have a cozy, feel-good night that brings people together for something a little different.
Special Q&A with Mike Jackson of LGSM
Following the screening, there will be a Q&A with Mike Jackson, a founding member of Lesbians and Gays Support the Miners (LGSM), the group featured in the critically acclaimed 2014 film inspired by their story.
Since the film’s release, several original members of LGSM have come together for speaking events and to raise funds through merchandise sales -with proceeds going to support modern-day workers fighting exploitative conditions. Young audiences continue to connect deeply with the story, showing that the spirit of activism is alive and well. Wales, in particular, has embraced the film’s legacy.
Got a film you’d love us to show next time? Let us know!
Until then… guess the film? 👠⚒️🏳️🌈
