"Chronicles the 1973 Harlan County, Kentucky coal miners' strike against the operators of the Brookside mine and the Duke Power Company, which resulted from the company's refusal to honor the national contract of the United Mine Workers of America when the miners joined the union. Barbara Kopple and her crew spent three years filming within the mining community and 180 families' bitter struggle to win a contract. Facing dangerous and violent anti-union gun thugs and the brutal murder of one of their own, the striking miners fearlessly face the picket line day in and day out in the hopes of securing a fare wage and a better way of life for their families. The film is a tribute to the working families of America, particularly the women of Harlan County who actively organized and spearheaded efforts to keep the struggle alive."
"This direct cinema documentary deals with a 13 month miners' strike in Kentucky in 1973-4 which culminated in the killing of a miner. While the film also deals with the context of unrest in the mining industry and with events in the administration of the miners union, the central concern is not really with analysis so much as with capturing something of the sense of solidarity in action which the filmmakers shared with the miners during the 13 months."@en
"Barbara Kopple's Oscar-winning film unflinchingly documents the coal miners' strike against the Eastover Mining Company in Harlan County, Kentucky in June 1973, capturing on film the miners' violent struggles with strikebreakers, local police and company thugs. Featuring a haunting soundtrack by country and bluegrass artists including Hazel Dickens and Merle Travis, the film chronicles the thirteen-month struggle between a community fighting to survive and a corporation dedicated to the bottom line."@en
