In this episode, the Director's Club hunts for the Riff Raff whose Hidden Agenda was to get the Angel's Share while the Wind Shakes the Barley as we look at the films of British director Ken Loach. Joined by "Fresh Perspective" host and founder of Cinema Femme Magazine, Rebecca Martin, we examine how he emerged from the tradition of the British "kitchen sink" drama, and then applied his emphatic technique and concerns of social issues to a variety of films, including several winners of the Palme D'or at the Cannes Film Festival.
