What Brassed Off is

A Yorkshire town’s last gasp at musical glory hinges on one woman’s brass-plated optimism. After the mine’s closure looms, the miners’ band resurrects itself with a flugelhorn-wielding outsider who refuses to take no for an answer. The soundtrack suggests triumph is closer than their next paycheck.
