From the publisher

'A master of world cinema.' Cililan Murphy

Since the original publication of Loach on Loach in 1998, Ken Loach has completed fourteen full-length feature films. This substantial body of work includes The Wind That Shakes the Barley and the North East trilogy that concludes six decades behind the camera and continued the director's blistering attack on ruling-class oppression and the exploitation of ordinary working people.

Thanks to Loach's close collaboration with the screenwriter Paul Laverty and support from the producer Rebecca O'Brien, this post-1998 period has proved the most compassionate, consistent and stylistically assured of Loach's career.

In a series of lively conversations, Loach assesses the making of these humanistic films and the thinking behind them in considerable detail, further adding to his reasoned and incisive commentary on the state of British politics from the Thatcher era through to the rise of Keir Starmer.
