Coal Dust tells the story of a Yorkshire mining family caught in the grip of the 1984-85 miners' strike. As pits close and communities fracture, Alan Broadhurst and his family struggle with hunger, divided loyalties, and the heavy cost of conviction. From bitter picket lines to quiet moments of love and resilience at home, this is a story of endurance, sacrifice, and the bonds that survive even when the work is gone.
