Billy Elliot

T0
Ballet may seem an unusual pursuit for a growing lad living in the North of England, but for Billy Elliot it is a release from life's daily misery and a ticket out of hard times. Set in the 1980's amidst the miners' strike, this is a compelling first film from acclaimed theatre director Stephen Daldry. Winner of Empire Awards 2001 Best British Film.
