I, Daniel Blake

While trying desperately and futility to work through the bureaucratic red tape and to deal with regimented, coldhearted employees (Kate Rutter, et al.) at the Newcastle unemployment office in order to find a job after suffering a heart attack in this engaging, touching, anger-producing, critically acclaimed, 100-minute Ken Loach film, a widowed, 59-year-old British carpenter (Dave Johns) befriends a single mother (Hayley Squires) with two children (Briana Shann and Dylan Phillips McKiernan) who is also down on her luck.
