Trailer

Why watch this film?

Premiered at small film festivals in the United States and around the world, 'Saviors' is a modest American movie that touches upon important contemporary topics such as the resurgence of racial hate speech and white supremacist groups in the US. However, its most novel and ambitious aspect is that it is a movie filmed in one continuous shot, a tool which, along with the convincing performance of the debuting lead actress, Megan Johnson, helps to heighten the narrative tension of an otherwise unoriginal story (not to mention that technically, it's a feat).
