SubstantialFilmsLtd

Headed by father-son writer-director team Mick Sands and Tom Sands and producer Phil Harris, Substantial Films develops and produces feature films and TV series. 

It was founded in 2009 to produce a series of uplifting documentaries filmed in remote parts of the world - the Birds Head peninsula in Indonesia, the jungles of Hampi in India, and several countries in West Africa - all available to watch on this channel. In 2013, we made our first feature film - Backtrack, which was shown on Netflix in the UK. Since then, we have made four more feature films, including our latest offering Decrypted. 

On our YouTube channel, you can expect to find: trailers and full-length versions of our documentaries, available to watch for free; trailers (often multiple versions) for our feature films; pro bono projects; and behind the scenes clips.
