Being on this journey is actually just telling people 'yeah, it's normal, we all feel isolated, we're just too ashamed to talk about it'.
– Barter Barber Sam Dowdall talks about his mission to get people to open up about depression and anxiety
The whole process wasn't easy; we found ourselves experiencing what Sam goes through every day; tough conditions, hours of solitude, kilometres and kilometres on the road, loneliness, but also joy, fun and happiness.
– Director Ygnacio Cervio on making The Barter Barber
Listening is enough. Being validated, being heard, is a huge thing.
– Sam Dowdell, in an interview with The Bay of Plenty Times, 11 May 2017
