Knightley beaten up in domestic abuse advert

Keira Knightley is beaten up by an abusive boyfriend in a hard-hitting advert launched today to raise awareness of domestic violence in the UK.

The two-minute film sees the 'Atonement' and 'Pirates of the Caribbean' star return home after a day’s filming to be confronted and attacked by her violent partner, who slaps her to the ground before raining kicks on her.
