1984: In a northern England mining town, miners are on strike and the atmosphere is tense. Eleven-year old Billy Elliot, whose father and brother are participating in the strike, whose mother has died quite some time ago and whose grandmother is not completely aware of what's going on, doesn't like the brutal boxing lessons at school. Instead, he falls for the girls' ballet lessons. When his folks find out about this unusual love of his, Billy is in trouble. Being supported by the ballet teacher, Mrs. Wilkinson, he keeps on training secretly while the work situation as well as the problems at home get worse. Finally, Mrs. Wilkinson manages to get Billy an audition for the Royal Ballet School, but now he also has to open his heart to his family. - Julian Reischl, IMDb

Отец Билли всегда мечтал, чтобы его сын стал боксером. Он чуть ли не насильно заставлял его посещать занятия по боксу в колледже. Но мальчик не находил ничего привлекательного в грубом и кровавом спорте, его душа стремилась к возвышенному. Однажды, возвращаясь с тренировки, Билли зашел в класс, где девочки занимались балетом. С тех пор больше ни о чем, кроме танцев, он и думать не мог. Когда Билли сообщил родным о своем намерении записаться в балетный кружок, отец пришел в ярость. Однако, угрозы отца и насмешки старшего брата не остановили Билли, и он начал заниматься балетом.
