Story Synopsis

Brassed Off! is a charming drama with comic relief that follows the fortunes of a Yorkshire English mining town and its inspirational brass band. Heads turn and hearts pound when Gloria (Tara Fitzgerald), the childhood sweetheart of bandmember Andy (Ewan McGregor) returns home, only to find the town turned upside-down by the threat of the mine closing down. While the two forge a new relationship, the band takes on its greatest challenge: competing in the championships at the Royal Albert Hall. Beautiful music provided by the Grimethorpe Colliery Band.
