==========================================
about the film:
EARTHLINGS is a feature length documentary about humanity's absolute
dependence on animals (for pets, food, clothing, entertainment, and
scientific research) but also illustrates our complete disrespect for
these so-called 'non-human providers.' The film is narrated by Academy
Award nominee Joaquin Phoenix and features music by the critically
acclaimed platinum artist Moby.
With an in-depth study into pet stores, puppy mills and animals
shelters, as well as factory farms, the leather and fur trades, sports
and entertainment industries, and finally the medical and scientific
profession, EARTHLINGS uses hidden cameras and never before seen
footage to chronicle the day-to-day practices of some of the largest
industries in the world, all of which rely entirely on animals for
profit. Powerful, informative and thought-provoking, EARTHLINGS is by
far the most comprehensive documentary ever produced on the
correlation between nature, animals, and human economic interests.
There are many worthy animal rights films available, but this one
transcends the setting. EARTHLINGS cries to be seen.
EARTHLINGS has taken five years to produce. What began as a series of
Public Service Announcements on spaying and neutering pets, evolved
into a feature-length film on every major animal-related issue.
'This is the single most powerful and informative movie about
society's treatment of animals. A must see for anyone who cares enough
to know' - Woody Harrelson
