The UK Vaping Industry Association (UKVIA) is promoting a new film by independent film maker David Hanin from Oneshot Media. The “powerful documentary” has been made to detail the European Union’s “confused attitude to tobacco harm reduction”.
UKVIA says: “The film, titled ‘Shut up and Smoke’, features a number of medical and industry experts calling for a better understanding of vaping and its potential for tobacco harm reduction. John Dunne, UKVIA Director General, is one of those interviewed on the role of vapes in helping the millions of smokers to quit and the importance of vape flavours in achieving this.”
Oneshot Media says: “In the second part of the documentary series Shut Up and Smoke, Oneshot Media focuses on smoking across Europe. Tabacologists, doctors and specialists provide their point of view as well as a list of solutions to combat the harmful effects of tobacco. With more than 700,000 deaths per year in Europe, smoking remains the greatest scourge of humanity.”
