Tobacco Slave

“Tobacco Slave,” a new film by award-winning director Roy Maconachie, the Tobacco Control Research Group at the University of Bath and tobacco industry watchdog STOP, exposes tobacco giant Imperial Brands and other companies through first-hand accounts from farmers in Malawi. They reveal an often predatory contract system that keeps famers trapped in poverty and creates an unsafe environment for children who frequently have to work to support their families.
