On Falling de Laura Carreira, film étonnant, pratiquant la morsure et le mesure, illuminé par trois gestes subversifs : - une tête soudain posée sur une épaule au fond d'un bar - une enfant comme au zoo - une étreinte subreptice dans un parc
Joana Santos dans On Falling, une caisse à la main

«On Falling» denuncia la situación de los trabajadores de Amazon a través del día a día de una inmigrante portuguesa en Escocia. Joana Santos está estupenda y todo resulta tristemente real. Merecido premio a la mejor dirección del Zinemaldia para Laura Carreira. Ya en Movistar+.

On the tenth anniversary of Ken Loach's heartbreaking Palme d’Or winning film, I, Daniel Blake, @theguardian.com sat down with Loach and star Hayley Squires to talk about their preparations for the material. Good read! @kenloach16films.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/culture/2026...

Ken Loach revisits I, Daniel Blake: ‘We were asking if food banks are tolerable. Now they’re an institution’
The scene at the food bank, recalls the director, where Katie is so hungry, she pours baked beans into her hand from a tin and eats them cold, came from a real story

This is not exactly a Christmas movie, but its depiction of a woman struggling to survive in a dehumanised worplace in the service of rampant consumerism, set against the kindness and decency of the people she encounters in the outside world, holds out some hope of redemption. Highly recommended.

This Labour government should have scrapped the two-child benefit cap on day one. Instead, it chose to keep hundreds of thousands of children in avoidable, grinding poverty for a year-and-a-half. I’m proud to have lost the Labour whip and left the party that has overseen this performative cruelty.

Alongside many campaigners, the Green Party have absolutely dragged the Labour Government to finally end the child cap. Labour politicians disgracefully defended it for far too long. This shows why the Green Party membership rising and rising matters. Join.greenparty.org.uk

The absolute loneliness that is at the center of this film moved me to tears. Capitalism is truly killing people on a literal and metaphorical level.  That last scene in the warehouse broke me!

Abolishing Indefinite Leave to Remain is racist, cruel and would tear families apart. This cannot be allowed to happen and we must stand together and fight it.
Nigel Farage is shamelessly copying Donald Trump's playbook.

For decades, politicians and the media have attacked refugees and migrants. Now even the rights of documented migrants are under threat.
As many of us have warned: an attack on one is an attack on all of us.

Abolishing Indefinite Leave to Remain is racist, cruel and would tear families apart. This cannot be allowed to happen and we must stand together and fight it.
