Kes
1969
A young working-class boy in a Yorkshire mining community finds purpose and joy in training a kestrel hawk, providing an escape from an oppressive home life and a school system with no interest in his potential. Ken Loach's landmark British realist film is a quietly devastating portrait of a child failed by every adult around him.
