Lions Among Men

Type: Short

Project Description: After masking her identity as a woman and joining the British Royal Navy in 1808, Victoria (Johanna Watts) finds herself shipwrecked on an island with the Lieutenant who betrayed her, the Slave Trader seeking to own her, and a West-African captive (Dayo Okeniyi) fighting to free them both. With her life at risk, Victoria must fight to overcome both her captors and the binding mentality of the 19th Century culture wrought with enslavement and torture.
