Ken Loach collaborated with playwright Trevor Griffiths (Comedians) for this underseen political drama about an East German protest singer (played by Gerulf Pannach) who emigrates to the West when he falls foul of the authorities. He arrives to much interest from the media – and a potentially lucrative record contract – but wishes only to be able to perform his songs, and to find his father, another exile, who had left his home country during the 1953 East German uprising.ExtrasHigh Definition remasterOriginal mono audioLanguage Barriers (2021): new interview with editor Jonathan MorrisTalk About Work (1971): Ken Loach's documentary for the Central Office of Information, photographed by Chris Menges, interviewing young people about their workRight to Work March (1972): documentary film of a five-week protest march from Glasgow to London that saw the participation of a number of cultural figures, including Loach and other filmmakersImage gallery: publicity and promotional materialNew an
