“The mainstream media didn’t tell the truth about the miners’ strike when it happened. And the same lies are still being told. It’s therefore important that we tell this story.”
KEN LOACH
“Still The Enemy Within is inspiring, uplifting, moving and sad. It is also important, telling as it does the story of a key conflict in British History. A conflict that was not about coal but about the fundamental principles of Trade Unionism and the state’s determination to destroy them”
BEN ELTON
“This is an important film. What happened to the miners in the 1980s is happening again in other forms as an increasingly totalitarian, surveillance state touches our lives. If you can, please support this project.'
JOHN PILGER
‘A moving tale, brought brilliantly to life by some incredible archive footage’
