SAMS GOLD
Short Film
Nine-year-old Sam sets out on a lonely journey from a housing estate to school. A magical tale, as told by a distant storyteller, his only guide. But when two teenage boys stop Sam and steal what little he has, Sam must conjure the strength to fight back.
Sometimes stories are our way out.
