The film 'It's A Free World' captures the story of a self-employed woman, Angie, who starts up a recruitment agency with her flatmate Rose. They employ immigrants from Eastern Europe who live in the London underbelly, illegally of course.
In my opinion, the actors chosen by the famous film director Ken Loach did an extraordinary job, their performance is incredibly realistic, true to life, nothing seems black and white. Angie, performed by the unknown Kierston Waring is a strong-minded character who doesn't think twice before doing things, but she is a real warrior even if she isn't always honest with the immigrants and herself. Rose is more rational-minded, she stands up for justice and equality. This film is a masterpiece of social realism, it shows disregard for humanity, an eye-opening mirror of the English society. It also reflects on European problems, especially immigration workers. On one hand the plot is really disturbing, upsetting and can even be frightening, on the other hand it is poignant and entertaining. I really enjoyed the way it has been shot, the camera is always moving, we can see interesting filming perspectives.
I think that this film is really important for us, young people to see and understand. Even if it is happening in the United Kingdom, it concerns the whole E.U.. And with the Brexit it became even more relevant for us to know what is going on in England! We are the new generation who has to fight for justice, equality and peace, against segregation and separation between different classes! So thanks to great artists like Ken Loach, people get informed about a gripping reality. Now it is up to us to react, to organise, to fight for a better world!
