No Pressure is a controversial 2010 short film produced by the global warming mitigation campaign 10:10, written by Richard Curtis and Franny Armstrong, and directed by Dougal Wilson. Intended for cinema and television advertisements, No Pressure is composed of scenes in which a variety of people in every-day situations are graphically blown to pieces for failing to be sufficiently enthusiastic about the 10:10 campaign to reduce CO2 emissions. The film's makers said that they viewed No Pressure as "a funny and satirical tongue-in-cheek little film in the over-the-top style of Monty Python or South Park". Before its release, The Guardian described it as "attention-grabbing" and "pretty edgy."

The film was withdrawn from public circulation by 10:10, on the same day it was released, due to negative publicity. Charities that had backed the film stated they were "absolutely appalled" upon seeing it, and several of 10:10's corporate and strategic partners withdrew from partnership. Fox News called the film "a blood-splattering display that has drawn anger from critics and sheepish embarrassment from its supporters."

Synopsis

The four-minute film consists of a series of short scenes in which groups of people are asked if they are interested in participating in the 10:10 project to reduce carbon emissions. Those failing to show enthusiasm for the cause are gruesomely blown to pieces.

Festival est une comédie noire qui se déroule en marge du festival annuel d'Édimbourg : le Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Le film se concentre autour de la projection d'une comédie à gros budget, qui sera primée au Festival, dans l'une des plus petites salles du Festival. Plusieurs histoires s'entremêlent alors incluant la relation entre une célébrité narcissique britannique et son assistante qui n'arrête pas de se plaindre, une actrice débutant au festival avec un one-woman show sur Dorothy Wordsworth et sur une riche mais dépressive femme mariée.
