Report it to Stop it 🛑

Our task was to promote Project Guardian by Transport for London, which is a team dedicated to reporting sexual assaults on London public transport. We aimed to encourage people to report any uncomfortable incidents by showing how ignoring such behavior could lead to it escalating. We created an interactive film where the viewer wears a woman's shoes and experiences a series of unwanted sexual behaviors that become progressively more and more serious. At each unpleasant event, the viewer is asked whether they would report it, and their answer affects the story's outcome.
Throughout it, the actor Olivia Colman narrates what is happening, and repeatedly asks: “Would you report it?”
