Read all about the world record beating People's Premiere here.

Normal film premieres are glitzy and exclusive, with nobody invited except VIPs - but the People's Premiere is different: VIPs, IPs and plain old Ps are all welcome to the world's first INclusive film launch. Featuring synchronised screenings at a staggering 60 different cinemas across the nation. With a solar-powered cinema tent pitched in London's Leicester Square, the People's Premiere is also the planet's first truly green film premiere - no greenwash allowed.

Ellen Potts and Diana Korchien

Ellen has been involved in climate camp for nearly three years. In July she is going to stand trial with 28 others for helping stop a coal train heading to Drax power station in Yorkshire last summer. Ellen’s day job is legal admin, but she hopes soon to head back to university to study how protest, linked in with decentralised and sustainable ways of life can help solve the massive social and environmental problems posed by climate change.
