Directed by Ken Loach ("The Wind That Shakes the Barley"), the drama "I, Daniel Blake" tells the story of widower Daniel Blake (Dave Johns), a 59-year-old carpenter who lives according to his own common sense moral code. After a heart attack leaves him unable to work, he stubbornly decides to stand up and fight against the bureaucratic forces of the system that has failed him when he needed it most. Through his crusade he also transforms the lives of a struggling single mother (Hayley Squires) and her two children.
The cast also includes Dylan McKiernan, Briana Shann, Kate Rutter, Kema Sikazwe, Steven Richens and Gavin Webster. The film was a hit with the critics and won several awards including a BAFTA for Outstanding British Film of the Year, the Palme d'Or at the 2016 Cannes Film Festival, and the César for Best Foreign Film. It was also Loach's biggest success at the UK box-office as it sparked a heated social debate in the country.
The film opened in select theaters in the U.S. and via streaming platforms on June 2nd.

SYNOPSIS
JUMP BACK TO TOP
"Winner of the Palme d'Or at the 2016 Cannes Film Festival, the latest from legendary director Ken Loach is a gripping, human tale about the impact one man can make. Gruff but goodhearted, Daniel Blake (Dave Johns) is a man out of time: a widowed woodworker who's never owned a computer, he lives according to his own common sense moral code. But after a heart attack leaves him unable to work and the state welfare system fails him, the stubbornly self-reliant Daniel must stand up and fight for his dignity, leading a one-man crusade for compassion that will transform the lives of a struggling single mother (Hayley Squires) and her two children. Graced with humor and heart, I, Daniel Blake is a moving, much-needed reminder of the power of empathy from one of the world's greatest living filmmakers."
