I’m up to my eyes because the second term is ready to end, so I have been absent from my blog for two weeks. Last Sunday, I look for a film in the newspaper. I read and saw the advice of Nuria about the film “Once”, but I go to the cinema with a friend who hate the musicals. So, I look for another option, of course, an original version in Yelmo Ikaria because is the only place where there are cinema in the Sundays morning.
The film I choose was “It’s a free world” directed by Ken Loach. Ken Loach is known for his naturalistic, social realism directing style and for his socialist beliefs. He made long time ago a famous film about the Spanish Civil War named “Tierra y Libertad”.
The main character is Angie, a working class woman, who is having been unjustly sacked from her job in an employment agency. So, she decides to set up her own agency with her flatmate, Rose. Taking advantage of the desperation of recent Polish immigrants, Angie build a successful business extremely quickly.
Honestly, I can’t recommend this film because it is very hard. But I’m keen on Ken Loach’s films although he shows the worst side of the human being.
