Story
Pretty much anyone who's worked in Kenya making wildlife films has worked with Sammy, he's a natural history legend who loves a good cup of tea, a laugh & sitting for months watching endlessly dull cats. He manages to find that perfect spot for the perfect shot making us all look very professional and as a small thanks for his endless patience we're going to try to raise the funds to bring him over for the first time to The UK for Wildscreen 2018.
