Created by Don’t Panic, Samaritans’ Christmas campaign is a simple but moving tale depicting the desperation of a man struggling with suicidal thoughts, juxtaposed with the future he's at risk of losing.
Directed with great sensitivity by Max Fisher, through Rogue Films, the spot shows how much someone could lose when they are in crisis, the terrible impact a suicide could have on the family and the moments that become possible if someone gets the help they need.
In the UK, every 10 seconds, Samaritans answers a call for help – this campaign highlights the importance of supporters' donations in keeping this life saving service going. Absolute
