Shot in bo th Barnsley and Tankersley the film Kes is 40 years old
Kes is the 1969 film based on Barry Hines novel "A Kestrel for a Knave," and was directed by Ken Loach.
Kes is a story of Barnsley boy Billy Casper, an academic failure and victim of social and spiritual poverty. This was no "Disney" boy and his pet type story, but a story of a disaffected Barnsley lad living on a grim estate, who first nicks a book on falconary and later steals a Kestrel. With infinite patience and dedication Billy trains the bird. For the first time in his short life he finds fulfilment and a sense of identity through the rearing and training of the kestrel.
