In Oulton, Leeds, an old coal-mining community of over 60 houses still stands.

Through a combination of audio interviews and a striking visual metaphor, we uncover the stories of a tightly-knit community, their cherished memories, and the stress and uncertainty surrounding their ongoing campaign to save their homes.
