Ken Loach’s film is the powerful story of a group of South Yorkshire railway track workers at the time of the privatisation of British Rail. As the profound effects of privatisation and the grave repercussions for the safety of the rail system become apparent, the solidarity of the men, previously unified by a sense of community and pride in a working tradition, begins to crumble.
