The Old Oak, dir. Ken Loach, UK / France / Belgium 2023, 113 min., English, 15

In an unlikely friendship, the landlord of an ailing local pub TJ Ballantyne (Dave Turner) meets the curious young Yara (Ebla Mari) with her camera. Can they find a way for the two communities to understand each other? So unfolds a deeply moving drama about their fragilities and hopes. 

Rumoured to be filmmaker Ken Loach’s final film, The Old Oak is the concluding film in his unofficial North East trilogy following I, Daniel Blake and Sorry We Missed You.
