A homeless man, trafficked for forced labour, must win over a recent young recruit to keep them both safe from the ruthless gang who hold them prisoner.

A homeless man, trafficked for forced labour, must win over a recent young recruit to keep them both safe from the ruthless gang who hold them prisoner. DRIFT is a Southern Gothic for the Britain of austerity and UKIP. It depicts the trafficking of vulnerable homeless men for forced labour and is inspired by a case which came to court in Luton in 2012. It is about agency and how we can come to accept the unacceptable.
