Introduction

In 1984, British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher took an iron-fisted approach to suppress the labor movement, and the miners launched the largest strike in history. In the same year's London Gay Pride Parade, a group of gay men and women decided to take the initiative to raise funds for the striking workers. However, embarrassment also followed: the union was ashamed to accept their funding! This group of homosexuals decided to bypass the union and go directly to the workers' homes. They drove to a coal mining village in South Wales and brought money and supplies to the workers' families. The two groups with very different backgrounds have had unexpectedly warm contacts since then, and formed the most unlikely alliance under the high pressure of the government. "Pride" is adapted from real events. It not only has historical images of the workers' movement in the 1980s, but also records the most touching page in the history of British gays. The transformation of the two groups from prejudice to tolerance, from misunderstanding to alliance is full of laughter and tears, and it is moving. "Pride" won the Queer Palm Award and the Best British Independent Film Award at the 67th Cannes Film Festival, and was nominated for the 2015 Golden Globe Award for Best Comedy Film.
