Burn Burn Burn starring Laura Carmichael & Chloe Pirrie releases new trailer

Burn Burn Burn, the directorial debut from Chanya Button, has released a brand new trailer.

The film stars Laura Carmichael (Downton Abbey), Chloe Pirrie (Shell), Joe Dempsie (Game of Thrones) and Jack Farthing (Poldark). The film is heading to cinemas on 28th October from Verve Pictures.

In supporting roles are a stellar line up of British comedy talent including Alice Lowe (Sightseers), Hannah Arterton (Walking on Sunshine), Alison Steadman (Shirley Valentine), Julian Rhind-Tutt (Green Wing), Sally Phillips (Bridget Jones’s Diary) and Nigel Planer (The Young Ones).

Burn Burn Burn was written by Charlie Covell and produced by Chanya Button, Tim Phillips and Daniel-Konrad Cooper.

Dan (Jack Farthing) dispatches his good friends Seph (Laura Carmichael) and Alex
(Chloe Pirrie) on an arduous road trip to hit five disparate UK venues. He’ll even
accompany them: not so much backseat driver as wedged into the glove
compartment, since the prematurely deceased Dan has assigned the bewildered,
emotionally freefalling pair to scatter his ashes in places dear to his heart. Meantime,
his funny, often painfully frank video missives map altogether rockier relationship
terrain. A crackling, life-affirming voyage of self-discovery.

Following its world premiere at the BFI London Film Festival in 2015. Burn Burn Burn won the Grand Prix at the Odessa Film Festival, the Audience Award at the
Umbria Film Festival, and the Audience Award at the Cinema City Festival in Novi Sad
