Earthlings
Feature length documentary about humankind’s relationship to other animals. How we treat them and how we depend on them.
[update: as a Smashing Telly viewer, points out, I should probably warn people that this film is very disturbing and graphic. However, it is not gratuitously so. Also, if the warning is relevant, merely because it may put you off your dinner, then it’s kind of pointless, since one of the points of this film is to warn you about your dinner. ]
Running time: 1 hour 35 mins.
