Thatcher vs. The Miners, the company’s first feature documentary. The film plans to use new evidence, including the miners’ own footage, along with first-person testimony, archive footage and journalism to explore the conflict between British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher’s government and the National Union of Mineworkers, that occurred nearly 40 years ago. Cabinet papers obtained for the documentary reveal the enormity of the conflict between Thatcher and union leader Arthur Scargill. The film also features interviews with miners’ leaders and union officials from the time, striking and working miners, and three members of Thatcher’s staff: Lord Robin Butler, Lord Andrew Turnbull and Lord Stephen Sherborne.
