SAMUEL & I is a journey of two teenage friends who take a chance by leaving their poverty ridden lives behind them. They travel across the US searching for an escape. With the limited resources two runaways can muster, they are able to experience life in all its beauty, tragedy and sheer evil. Their experiences take a jump start as adolescents, when they are thrust into unfamiliar territories that force them to mature, and in certain circumstances against their will.
SAMUEL & I can make you realize that sometimes the foundation from which we start, may not be as stable as we once believed it to be.
While living off the grid in Hollywood, the two friends discover just how far some people would go to save their own souls. They continue to experience life in its true raw form, while taking bus trips and hitchhiking across state lines. The greatest survival tool we have is instinct, a concept all too familiar in SAMUEL & I.
Although they would like their adventures to continue, major roadblocks hinder their very existence as friends. There are a few scenarios in life that aren't so cut and dried, but in order to survive, they must rely on each other to cushion any unexpected stumbles along the way.
We all have a past that is full of secrets and sometimes shame. What would you do to escape it all? Better still, what wouldn't you do? There is a point in life when we question our limits. It is a matter of time really. How long can we balance on the fine line between insanity and reason?
