Free Damaris resources for The Lady

The people at Damaris have created free official resources for the movie The Iron Lady, which arrives in cinemas today.

The resources have been designed to help Christians talk with their friends about some of the big themes.

The Iron Lady tells the compelling story of Margaret Thatcher, a woman who broke through the barriers of gender and class to be heard in a male-dominated world.

It's received the thumbs of Damaris Trust, who describe it as a "surprising and intimate portrait of an extraordinary and complex woman whose legacy still polarises opinion to this day".

Some of the topics to emerge in the film are: overcoming prejudice; balancing family and career; making a mark; coping with change; celebrating achievement and dealing with regret.

Damaris is encouraging Christians to arrange a group outing to see the film and follow up with an informal evening of fun and reflection using the resources.

The resources include posters and invitations, recipe suggestions for food and drinks, fun and games, and questions.

There are also handy clips from the film and special videos to jog the memory on key scenes.
