Such was the case witháKes,áwhich resulted from the 1968 Barry Hines noveláA Kestrel for a Knave.Kesáwas one of those rare films which concerned the working class and highlighted some of their life struggles and was enshrined in the life of Barnsley schoolboy, Billy Casper.The author was a falconer at the time, and now 55 years lateráDiscovering Kesis a tribute to all thingsáKesáfrom how the film came about, to its production, anecdotes, impact on society (then and now) and not least the tracking down of the filming and associated locations along with maps which enable like-minded people to follow in his footsteps.Contains an exclusive interview with director Ken Loach.
