Pride is a lighthearted comedy-drama that tackles a heavy piece of history. During the British miner's strike of 1984 a group of gay and lesbian activists raised money to keep miner's families afloat. But like with most solidarity actions, things don't always run smoothly...The Spineless crew discuss showing the movie at a fundraiser, solidarity work in general, and somehow even we even manage to sneak in an 8 Mile reference.~Sources and links~---Intro music by digital zen https://soundcloud.com/digital-zen------The fundraiser was for the NSW Water Runs group.
