This documentary will open your eyes to the truth about the 'food' you choose to eat. It explodes the myth of 'humane slaughter', show the reality of 'free range' and every day farm practices and animal agriculture in Australia, but common around the world, as well as some other practices that occur in other countries to bring us in the West, our 'creature comforts' like down pillows and fur coats.
The undercover footage that was bravely obtained by activists and painstakingly put together for this film, along with the drone footage, has some of the most moving and powerful scenes portraying the suffering and horror that is the life and death of farmed animals.
Especially if you still consume animal products, have the courage to watch this film and see if your choice to do so really stacks up as a good reason to do something that requires so much suffering, and creates so much waste, greenhouse gases and poor human health outcomes.

I went to see a free screening of this after being urged by a friend who is vegan. I came up with every excuse to avoid watching it until I gave into peer pressure...
It's a gruelling 2 hours with no apologies made for its transparency. It'll rip you open and make you question your morals, beliefs and everything you were taught was normal in society. On the plus side, I've found vegan food isn't that bad after all!! Definitely recommend that everyone watch this, but it's not for the faint hearted.
It takes courage to stand up and say what needs to be said. I applaud everyone involved in the production of this film. The change begins within. Each one of us needs to re-evaluate what we accept and tolerate. That uniting process, when magnified and absorbed by large amounts of people, creates the shift. It starts with the individual and films like this allow the individual to find their power. Thank you.
I've seen a lot of horrible footage like these that we can see in this documentary before, but these are beyond imagination and it's an unbelievable compilation of human immorality and cruelty towards animals, itself, nature and earth.
It's a documentary that you can't watch easily, I almost not watched all of its scenes in detail. I just can't.
It's a wonder how we, as human beings can do such things on a global scale.
I always feel proud because I've decided to become a vegan years ago and now, I feel better than ever and I will not look back for even a second, but knowing that all the animals are still being exploited by human beings, is just disgusting and hard to take.
I hope everyone would change their mind about speciesism, animal cruelty and diet.
8.5/10.

This movie is very hard to watch for any conscious human being. For the first time in my life I wish a movie would not exist, not because it is bad but because it shows evil. Evil from humanity that tries to act with moral values but somehow accepts this.
I can't picture myself eating animal products again after watching this. Certain pictures just wont disappear and I don't even want to talk about them.

- TriviaThe opening text, without voiceover, is "From beasts we scorn as soulless, in forest, field and den, the cry goes up to witness, the soullessness of men. - M. Frida Hartley". The earliest match appeared in "The Spectator" magazine of London in 1928 within the literary supplement section. M. Frida Hartley published a poem titled "Hymn of Pity for Broken Birds and Beasts" which was composed of five verses of eight lines each. The second verse contained the quoted lines. The first four lines of the said verse are "For creatures of Thy making, Old laws assigned for use, New freedom stands proclaiming, Their rights and our abuse"
