Daniel Blake, veuf, menuisier de 59 ans, est victime d'un accident cardiaque, ce qui l'oblige à faire appel pour la première fois de sa vie à l'aide sociale. Ses médecins lui interdisent de travailler. Mais il est déclaré apte par une compagnie privée sous-traitant pour l'administration la « chasse aux tire-au-flanc ». Les services sociaux le privent donc de l'allocation à laquelle il croyait avoir droit. Il peut faire appel, mais la procédure sera longue. On lui conseille, en attendant, de s'inscrire au chômage., 1h41

In the opening scenes, the protagonists are sentenced to hours of community payback. During his first community payback session, Robbie (Paul Brannigan), under the guidance of Harry (John Henshaw), is interrupted and taken to the hospital by Harry as his girlfriend, Leonie (Siobhan Reilly), has gone into labour. At the hospital, Robbie is assaulted by two of his girlfriend's uncles before he can see her. Harry takes Robbie back to his house to clean him up, at which point Leonie calls to announce Robbie's son, Luke, has been born. Harry insists that he and Robbie celebrate, and brings out a vintage whisky. With Leonie's encouragement, Robbie agrees to meet with a victim of his former violent crimes, Anthony (Roderick Cowie), who recollects the attack in front of both his family and Leonie. Afterwards, Leonie makes clear that she does not want her son to grow up around violence and long-term feuds.
