Indie Studio Defies Norms to Boost Wartime Morale with Daring WWII Film

In November 2025, indie studio Giant Films is set to premiere its provocative WWII film "Think of England" at the Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival. The movie, directed by Richard Hawkins, follows a motley crew of six people who are dropped off on an uninhabited island with a secret mission: to make pornographic films to help the British government boost the fighting morale of soldiers on the frontlines.
