"Rousing stuff"  ★★★★

Just Do It lifts the lid on climate activism and the daring troublemakers who have crossed the line to become modern-day outlaws. Documented over a year, Emily James' film follows these activists as they blockade factories, attack coal power stations and glue themselves to the trading floors of international banks despite the very real threat of arrest.

"A smart, funny, adrenalised portrait of 21st century activism" Danny Leigh - The Guardian



Just Do It WORLD PREMIERE at Sheffield Doc/Fest!

We don’t need to tell you that this film has been a long time in the making. Nor do we need to bang on about the generosity of over 100 volunteers, 447 crowd funders and innumerable groups and organisations who’ve made this film possible.

And after bucket loads of passion and determination, we’re over the moon to announce that Just Do It – a tale of modern-day outlaws will have its world premiere at Sheffield Documentary Festival on Thursday 9th June at 6:35pm in Showroom 4. The festival is an industry biggie and it’s a real honour to be showing the film there.

We want to say an enormous thank you. This film could not have happened without your support.

Our Sheffield screening will be the very first opportunity to see the film up on the big screen – come one, come all! The festival have thrown down the gauntlet, giving us a 280-seat cinema to fill – let’s show ‘em that this film knows the meaning of grassroots support and make our premiere a sell-out hit. Book tickets for you, your friends and Auntie Pam and make sure we see you there!
