Stark and powerful Indictment of the UK welfare bureaucracy
This film is a powerful indictment of the bureaucratic benefits system and the associated problems with austerity. Director Ken Loach handles the emotive topic with profound sensitivity. Not an easy film for someone on benefits to watch but I am really glad I bought this DVD.

A true accurate story
DVD still in good condition & played well all through. A story sadly still true today for those caught up in a benefit system that doesn’t account for their personal needs. A very accurate & very well acted film

Entertaining, opens your eyes too today's problems, a good reminder how we need to try keep up with modern technology life's struggle if we can't be bothered. I'm talking from a teacher point of view. It's the way ahead, like it or not. Otherwise some will get left behind.

Fulfilling for those with a social concience and a need for a real story well told.
Painful at times, reflecting a lost and overlooked part of society. Great acting and a good heart.
