The plot of the movie " Billy Elliot"?

i need a summary of the movie Billy Elliot.The plot of the movie " Billy Elliot"?
Let me get the summary out of the way first: Billy Elliot (Jamie Bell) is a cute freckled kid growing up in a mining town in the North of England during the mid-eighties. There's a strike going on, and his father and brother are busy throwing eggs and rocks at cops and scabs. Billy's mom is dead, and his grandmother is crazy (funny-crazy, not disturbing-crazy, mind you.)



Billy's dad (Gary Lewis) sends his lad boxing, but soon enough the boy gets interested in the ballet lessons going on in the same gym. Two scenes later, he trades his gloves for a tutu and steals ballet books from the library bus. Of course his dad mustn't find out about it because English miners are famous for their homophobia and distaste for the fine arts. There's conflict ahead, but Billy's teacher (Julie Walters) thinks he might be good enough to try out for the Royal Ballet School. Can Billy overcome the odds to become a dancer?The plot of the movie " Billy Elliot"?
Voila.
