Pride is a British historical film based on a true story from the 1980s, when a group of LGBT activists decided to support striking miners during the 1984-1985 UK miners' strike.

The film focuses on the character of Mark Ashton, a young and determined activist who starts a campaign to raise funds for the miners. Although they initially face resistance and skepticism both from the miners and the wider public, this unlikely alliance proves to be a powerful symbol of solidarity and the fight for minority rights. The main themes of the film are friendship, courage, and the strength of community. It shows how two seemingly very different groups—the LGBT activists and the working-class miners—can find common ground and join forces against oppression. The film emphasizes the importance of mutual respect and support, which are crucial in achieving common goals, offering a deep and moving portrayal of the power of informal alliances during difficult times. Pride is not only a story about the past but also about values that remain relevant today—fighting for equality, justice, and love in the broadest sense.
