Eating Animals Film Review

CLIENT: DEMAND.FILM
OUTLET: FILM INK

Eating Animals was adapted and extended from the novelist Jonathan Safran Foer’s non-fiction book of the same name. Despite the title, and also despite its potentially distressing theme, it begins as an evidence-based argument against factory farming rather than animal consumption in general. Some of the people featured most onscreen are in fact small-scale chicken or pig farmers, albeit with very serious qualms and a disposition (at least) towards activism.
