Ken Loach won widespread acclaim – and the 1970 Karlovy Vary Film Festival award – with his second film. It tells the story of a 12-year-old boy who finds an escape from his troubled life by training a kestrel. More than 50 years on, Kes is considered one of the best children’s films ever made and continues to move young and adult audiences.
