The triumphant true story of a group of British miners who discovered a new way to express themselves and unexpectedly became art-world sensations! An arresting and witty salute to the power of individual expression and the collective spirit, The Pitmen Painters takes you on an unforgettable journey from the depths of the mine to the heights of fame. A humorous, deeply moving and timely look at art, class and politics. "Ablaze with intellectual vigour, political passion and incendiary emotional energy. A beautiful work of art that everybody should see." -The Times (London)
