Hollywood actor Natalie Portman narrates a controversial new documentary that screens soon in this country.

It's called Eating Animals, and it's a no holds barred expose of the inhumanity of industrial farming practices that dominate American food systems.

Tammi Jonas used to be a vegetarian but now she's a farmer and butcher in regional Victoria.

She explains why she endorses a movie that seems, on the surface, to preach veganism.
