Not all animals are equal. While thousands of animals are turned into food in the industrialised and mechanised machinery of the farming industry, a man blow dries the feathers of his prize-winning cockerel.
Filmed from the perspective of pigs, chickens, cows and dogs, Facing Animals asks the difficult question: why is it that we treat our pets better than some of our fellow humans, while constructing a system designed to produce as many pork chops as cheaply as possible? A film about people through the eyes of animals.
PLEASE NOTE: Facing Animals will be shown as part of the short film programme Eating Animals. Tickets are available under that entry. Director Jan van IJken will be present after both screenings for a Q&A.
