Brassed Off

Brassed Off is a movie starring Pete Postlethwaite, Tara Fitzgerald, and Ewan McGregor. The coal mine in a northern English village may be closing, which would also mean the end of the miners' brass band.
A Yorkshire coal mine is threatened with closure and the only hope is for the men to enter their Grimley Colliery Brass Band into a national competition. They believe they have no hope until Gloria appears carrying her Flugelhorn. At first mocked for being a woman, she soon becomes the only chance for the band to win.
