That's right, instead of spooky stuff were talking documentaries, but this shows entry does feature the scariest monster that ever lived. Thankfully despite still haunting peoples dreams like Freddy she hasn't risen from the dead like Jason or that Myers fellaTHE IRON LADIESThe inspiring 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. Directed by Daniel Draper (Nature of the Beast), Iron Ladies is a celebration of the iron willed women who maintained the 1984/85 Miners' Strike as they fought for the future of their communities. Iron Ladies shines a spotlight on the previously overlooked narratives of women, who still fight for their communities today. Heather Wood, Lorraine Stansbie, Rose Hunter, Kate Alvey, Betty Cook, and Aggie Currie are amongst the 20 unsung working-class heroes to share their stories.Iron Ladies will be released in UK and Irish cinemas from 10th OctoberLINKS AND STUFFMark and his 100 thingsTotalCultZone.com for the Total Cult [email protected] - To Direct message without that social media guffBuy me a coffee get access to the super secret Total Cult ClubKO-FI!Music;Tatami: Midnight DriveMusic from #Uppbeathttps://uppbeat.io/t/tatami/midnight-driveLicense code: I27A9WQID9MEZUKO Hosted on Acast.
