An Evening with Ken Loach at Peckham Plex, 16 April

[Nick Wrack]

Acclaimed film director Ken Loach will be looking at extracts of his work over the past 50 years and discussing the political and artistic ideas that have influenced it. From Cathy Come Home (1966) to his latest film Jimmy's Hall (2014), Ken Loach has been a pioneer of socially engaging cinema, not afraid to put his political arguments at the heart of his films, as in Land and Freedom (1995). Throughout his career Ken has remained true to his radical political ideas, depicting working-class life and struggle as it really is. There will be extracts from the rarely seen (because banned) Questions of Leadership (1983) and other films to illustrate his work - his art and politics. There will be plenty of time for discussion.

Ken's last visit to the PeckhamPlex for a screening of The Save the Children Fund Film and Q & A was a sell-out, so book early.

The event is a fund-raiser for the election campaign of Nick Wrack, the socialist candidate at the General Election for Camberwell and Peckham. Nick is a joint candidate for Left Unity and the Trade Unionist and Socialist Coalition (TUSC).

Please pay the solidarity price if you can.
