PRIDE (2014)

[15]

Ahead of the inaugural edition of Manufactory, Park Royal Design District presents an expanded programme of film, moving image and live public screenings in North Acton Square, exploring industry, architecture, labour and the city. Spanning artists’ moving image, classic cinema, family films and shared public events, the programme introduces audiences to some of the themes surrounding Manufactory while creating new opportunities to gather in the district throughout the summer.

As part of the programme, North Acton Square presents Matthew Warchus’ Pride [15], the historical comedy-drama based on an extraordinary true story.

Set during the 1984 miners’ strike, the film follows a group of lesbian and gay activists who begin fundraising in solidarity with striking miners. Led by activist Mark Ashton, the group travels from London to the Dulais Valley in South Wales, where an initially unlikely alliance develops between the two communities.

Warm, funny and moving, Pride is a story of solidarity, collective action and friendship, set against a defining moment in recent British social and political history.

The wider Summer Screenings programme follows public broadcasts of the FIFA World Cup and Wimbledon Championships in North Acton Square and continues through the summer with film screenings and selected live sports, ahead of Manufactory on 11–12 September 2026.

Presented as part of the Summer Streets programme, supported by the Mayor of London, Ealing Council and the Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation (OPDC).
