DESCRIPTION:A Special Screening of Mike Figgis' new film of Jeremy Deller's project 
 \nThe Battle of Orgreave\n\nThe Battle of Orgreave was a large scale art 
 event that took place last year, in which the artist Jeremy Deller 
 initiated a re-enactment of a violent battle that took place in the North 
 of England between 5,000 policemen and striking coal miners during the 1984 
 miners strike. Mounted police broke the miners' picket lines, and chased 
 them into the town of Orgreave, dealing a critical blow from which the 
 miner's union would never recover.\n	Nearly 1,000 people took part in the 
 two-day performance organized by Deller, including many veterans of the 
 strike as well as individuals from historical re-enactment societies who 
 spend their spare time recreating battles from the Roman era to the Second 
 World War. Directed by MIke Figgis, the film shows preparations for the 
 staged battle and the event itself.  It also includes interviews with 
 participants in the original confrontation.\n
