  9. The target audience for ‘I, Daniel Blake’ is older people around age 16+. It’s quite a mature topic that young people may not understand or know the importance of. The target audience would be older teenagers and adults, especially the lower class people, because they can understand and relate to this on a specific level and know what the topic of what the films is about based upon it being centred around class, money and politics. A higher class would be based upon the political aspects, unlike lower class who relate to it and search for self-identity (Blumlier and Katz). 

  10. Daniel Blake (Dave Johns) is a 59-year-old widowed carpenter who must rely on welfare after a recent heart attack leaves him unable to work.
