IRON LADIES (INCLUDES Q&A WITH BETTY COOK)
Running time: 150 mins
Following the documentary, there will be a live Q&A with Betty Cook, who became one of the leading protest voices against quarry closures during the 1984-85 Miners' strike, and is featured in the film.
The untold story of working-class women who, during the 1984–85 Miners' Strike, found themselves at the forefront of a battle against the British state. From Scotland down to Kent, women from the coalfields shed light on their experiences of the year long struggle, and how they became the backbone of the Strike. With many still active today, their actions reshaped the landscape of political activism for working-class women.
