Keira Knightley for Women's Aid



In this unbelievably well-produced PSA for Women's Aid actress Keira Knightley is beaten senseless by her domineering boyfriend. The spot plays out more like a short film than any other PSA I've ever seen. It is well-scripted and the director, Joe Wright, does a fantastic job with both the shots and the depiction of violence.

It may be hard to watch, but in that way it's especially shocking and eye-opening. Hopefully, the message helps Women's Aid inspire people to support the cause of preventing domestic violence.
