| Plot |
| British Filmaking showed much of its potential in this marvellous production chronicling the boyhood experiencies of Billy, whose expectations lead no further than following his brother into the pits when he reache manhood.Everything changes when he finds Kes, a young kestrel, whom he trains. Their relationship becomes symbolic of a doomed attempt to escape the drudgery of the industrial North.Kes is a marvellous, moving and compassionate film, so realistic that it is often funny. Written and directed by one of the most politically commited of British filmmakers, Kes is an astute and authentic analysis of society at large |
