Our take

Britain’s pre-eminent auteur of politically-engaged social realism, Ken Loach followed up his Palme d’Or win for I, Daniel Blake with this scathing indictment of the gig economy. Powerfully intimate, Sorry We Missed You is a fierce condemnation of the ruinous practices of the modern job market.
