Pledge to see Black Gold

Made by British filmmakers Nick and Mark Francis, Black Gold looks at the contrast between the enormous power and wealth of the mighty multinational coffee companies and the millions of coffee farmers and producers who are struggling to make a living. The film follows Tadesse Meskela, the General Manager of the Oromia Coffee Farmers Co-operative Union in Ethiopia, as he travels to London and Seattle meeting coffee buyers and trying to negotiate a better price for his farmers.

Help spread the word by pledging to see the film. If more people sign up to see the movie, then more screenings will be shown across the country, meaning thousands more people will get to watch it.
