Cat P @cxkexo Jan 9 Very eye-opening documentary. its very graphic, very gorey with real life videos, that happened, how people so carelessly treat animals. it shows what actually goes on behind doors, how people mistreat animals, when we ourselves are animals. it has 5 parts to the documentary, pets, food, clothes, entertainment, and science. showing how animals are treated in each industry, and each industry treated them terribley. even with kosher meat farms, which animals are supposed to be treated with care, and die a non-painful, quick death, which they do not follow the kosher rules. very eye opening, a film everyone should watch, to have an understanding on what goes on behind closed doors. See more Icelandic Cubicle 01/15/2025 One of the most powerful and devastating documentaries I have ever seen, and one of the few films that I would say truly has to be seen by everybody. Worse than any horror movie and still relevant after 20 years (so is Dominion by Chris Delforce), it shows the harsh and unflinching reality of animal exploittation at the hands of humankind. Being a vegan is not a weird fad by a bunch of tree hugging hippies, it is a moral imperative. And in a long time (if we are even still alive) humanity will look back on the way it treated non human animals with the same shame, horror and disgust that it look back at the worst atrocities we have perpetrated against one another.

You may say, 'But I only buy from reputable companies or from organic or humane-certified sources.' Those labels are a complete joke and do nothing to protect animals from extreme cruelty, ending in horrific terror and slaughter. Additionally, over 99% of animals are still raised in factory farms under deplorable, inhumane conditions. Our only ethical option is to abstain completely and go vegan." See more Jake T 11/22/2024 An absolute must-watch for all humans, as is the follow-up documentary, Dominion. See more Palipali K 11/11/2024 An eye opening on the suffering animals raised for food go through in the meat and dairy industries. I'm thankful for this documentary, and I thank Joaquín Phoenix for narrating it. See more Heather B 07/21/2024 Absolutely life changing film. See more Read all reviews
