ABOUT THE FILM

The beaches of Hartlepool, in the North East of England, are where seacoalers have worked and prospered for centuries.

Steve and Keith are the last two seacoalers working today, and despite the government phasing out coal in under two years’ time, they remain proud of their craft and the life it has given them.
