Synopsis
A heartwarming story that has danced its way into cinema history, Billy Elliot returns to the big screen for its 25th anniversary. Set against the backdrop of the 1984–85 miners’ strike in Northern England, Stephen Daldry’s award-winning film follows 11-year-old Billy, a boy whose world changes the moment he stumbles into a ballet class. What begins as curiosity transforms into a passion that challenges expectations, defies tradition, and sparks a battle between grit and grace.
Jamie Bell delivers a breakout performance as Billy, capturing the vulnerability, determination, and joy of a child discovering his true calling. With powerhouse support from Julie Walters and Gary Lewis, and a script penned by Lee Hall, the film remains as inspiring and poignant today as it was upon release in 2000.
Celebrated for its uplifting message, striking performances, and unforgettable dance sequences, Billy Elliot is not just about ballet, it’s about courage, identity, and the transformative power of art. Join us in celebrating 25 years of this beloved classic that continues to move audiences worldwide.
