Hull Freedom Trail

Remember the lovable Claudio from Long Way Round and Long Way Down? Those treks haven’t been his only world explorations, in fact, Claudio has filmed and documented cultures located in a variety of remote locations, including the mountains of Afghanistan, the rain forests of New Guinea, and the front lines in Iraq. This latest film from him follows a group of philanthropists on an anti-slavery campaign to deliver 4×4 vehicles to humanitarian organizations in Sierra Leone. As always, I’ve hidden a nice little extra in this post – if you’re unsure how to access it, contact me:

There’s not much more to say besides what is in the description above. I thought the film was pretty good, but I was a bit disappointed in the participants. It seems that they were awfully unprepared (both physically and mentally) and quite whiny. Their self-centered attitudes somewhat detracted from the spirit of the mission throughout the film. Nevertheless, it all comes together in the end and their mission is a great success. Seeing the 4×4 vehicles delivered among countless wide-eyed children will put a smile on your face.

If you like the DVD, please consider purchasing it – many of the proceeds are donated to anti-slavery organizations. Alternatively you can check out the Hull Freedom Trail website for other gifts and contribution opportunities:
