Can You See Me - Samaritan (Short Film)

A homeless man down on his luck, is shown kindness by a "good samaritan". The samaritan has ulterior intentions which soon become clear after he holds the man alongside others against their will in a travellers camp, forcing them to provide labour for his own financial gain.

One of two short films that were commissioned for the ongoing Can You See Me Campaign produced by the anti slavery charity A21.

The scripts were based off actual cases that had occurred in the UK. The films are primarily being used as education tools by the police and by various community services and charities. 60sec cuts of the films and a poster campaign have been utilised at Heathrow airport.
