The Saffron Premiere

On 14th July at 8:30pm, The Co-operative will present the nationwide Saffron Premiere of Burma VJ.

Cinemas all across the country, including one near you, will be satellite-linked LIVE to BAFTA in London, creating a nationwide “Saffron Premiere”. On the night, everyone will be encouraged to wear something saffron (or at least orange!) to symbolise their support for the monks, journalists and general public who took part in the 2007 Saffron Revolution in Burma.

The co-operative Dogwoof

This film is brought to you by The Co-operative, working together with Dogwoof.

There are many oppressive regimes across the world; however Burma presents a combination of circumstances that makes a compelling case for action. As such, and in line with the call from democratically-elected representatives of the Burmese people, The Co-operative does not trade with Burma, The Co-operative Travel has delisted the country as a tourist destination, and The Co-operative Bank will not finance any commercial organisation with a significant presence in Burma.
