Celebrating 25 years, Stephen Daldry’s award-winning Billy Elliot remains one of the most uplifting British films of its era. Set against the backdrop of the 1984–85 miners’ strike, it tells the story of 11-year-old Billy (Jamie Bell), who unexpectedly discovers a love of ballet that challenges the expectations of his working-class family and community.

With unforgettable performances from Jamie Bell, Julie Walters, and Gary Lewis, the film blends grit, humour, and heartfelt emotion into a moving tale of resilience and self-discovery. A modern classic, Billy Elliot continues to inspire audiences with its message about pursuing dreams against the odds.
