Get Free

Amanda and Craig Giles made a beautiful movie with a powerful storyline that highlights Human Trafficking. They believed in this global issue so much they did whatever it took to bring it to the screen. Lots of heart and undying belief. Had the privilege of meeting them. Their heart and passion is undeniable and cannot wait to see what they bring to the screen next!

The two main characters were lovable and also quite relatable because of their essences. Casting overall was on point. You can feel everyone hired on the film cared a great deal for the story, cause, and each other.

Was a tremendous honor to experience it.

Craig Giles (writer/producer), Daniel Widdowson (director), Amanda Giles (story editor/producer), Mason Grady (producer/cinematography) Charles Davidson (editor) and the rest of the film's creative team have carefully crafted a drama/thriller about sex trafficking in Australia. The issue is worldwide in its scope and though the details may differ from country to country, the theme remains the same: the powerful exploit the powerless for profit. Special shout-outs to actors Kaitlyn Boye, Jennifer Corren. Shane Emmett. Jessica. Marchi, Mary-Ann Halpin, Amanda Hedges, Yannick Lawry, Kelly McRae, Annette Melton, Ana Thu Nguyen, Ross Pearson, Nico Jaffers and Daniel Widdowson.

Get Free aims to tackle the serious issue of human trafficking in Australia, but despite its good intentions, the film stumbles with weak storytelling and uneven production quality. The plot feels disjointed, the characters underdeveloped, and the pacing inconsistent-dragging in some places, rushing in others.

While the cast gives it their all, many performances feel forced, and the emotional moments don't land as powerfully as they should. Technical aspects like editing and cinematography are inconsistent, further undermining the film's impact.

Get Free tries to be a socially conscious drama but lacks the focus and polish to fully engage. A missed opportunity.

Craig Giles (writer/producer), has delivered and exceptionally relevant Australian drama that uncovers a very real and tragic reality uncovering the blunt dangers of trafficing at a grass roots level. Daniel Widdowson (director and lead) has woven together realistic plausible and tragically accurate portrails of how young women are trafficked and how rings operate. Amanda Giles (story editor/producer) and Mason Grady (producer/cinematography) with Charles Davidson (editor) are a team to watch as they have delivered a world class product. Kaitlyn Boye, Jennifer Corren. Shane Emmett and Jessica Marchi were exceptional. Mary-Ann Halpin, Amanda Hedges, Yannick Lawry, Kelly McRae, Annette Melton, Ana Thu Nguyen, and Nico all delivered solid performances and gave the storyline the Realism required to deliver the message with punch and panache. I fully recommend this film and cannot comment without referencing how refreshing it is to see a film tackle a subject which is unfortunately often swept under the carpet. The reality of the sex trafficking industry portrayed is difficult to accept and more difficult to confront.

What a moving, profound and uncomfortable story to tell. Unfortunately, this is a reality for many Australian children which 20,000 are reported missing each year. This is rarely talked about and often dismissed that it could happen in our own backyard. I commented this film for raising awareness. This had me squirming in my seat. It has also been on my mind every day since seeing film which speaks of its greater purpose. This may not be a high budget Hollywood, however there was one scene that sent shivers down my spine with incredibly authentic acting. Shot beautifully on the NSW Central coast I wish this film all the success it deserves.
