The Rainbow Collective CIC
Since 2006, Hannan Majid and Richard York have produced, shot and directed documentaries in South Africa, Bangladesh, Iraq and the UK and have won awards in Dubai, France and the Czech Republic.
The Rainbow Collective CIC, is a unique production company, formed as a social enterprise and committed to raising awareness on issues of human and children's rights through powerful, cinematic documentaries and have collaborated with Amnesty International, The Consortium for Street Children, War on Want, Actionaid and many others.
In addition to our own production work, we have run and facilitated numerous youth training schemes, the results of which have been screened in The House of Lords, The BFI, The Equality and Human Rights Commission , the House of Commons and at film festivals across the UK.
As always, we have many new projects on the go, please visit the NEWS page for details
We are raising money for the families of the garment workers who lost their lives in the Rana Factory collapse, Dhaka, Bangladesh. https://www.justgiving.com/NGWF
To do this, we are partnering with War On Want (UK based charity with whom we have collaborated for many years) and the National Garment Workers Federation (garments worker's union based in Bangladesh). Currently 42 NGWF members passed away in the building collapse and over 100 of its members are in critical care in hospital. Through our relationship with NGWF, we can ensure that these families, to whom we have direct access, will receive every penny that is donated here.
We hope to provide at least 1 month's salary to each of these families, many of whom will have lost their only earner in the disaster.
At various events across the world, we are screening our documentary 'The Machinists' which follows the lives of ordinary garment workers in Dhaka, as a campaign tool to raise awareness on the lives of garment workers as well as to raise funds.
If you would like to organise your own screening and fundraiser using The Machinists, please feel free to contact us at any time
