How about a nice slice of sobering reality for dessert after your factory farmed xmas turkey and pig Pause for a while to contemplate our one sided abusive relationship with all the other inhabitants of this large spinning rock that we all live on. The other "Earthlings" Joachim Phoenix, "Commodus" from the film gladiator, shows that there is more than to him than just his abundant acting talent. He narrates this documentary exploring our cruelty to the other creatures that have the misfortune to share the earth with us. The voiceless victims of global warming and corporate greed that will never have a seat at the table in Bali or anywhere else. Compulsory xmas viewing for all children if this cycle of abuse is ever to change in the future. EARTHLINGS is a freely available 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 (GLADIATOR) 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. Highly recommended! and while you're at it, a not unrelated link after the excess consumption of xmas. Excellent stuff! (sic) http://www.storyofstuff.com/ |

Dear Wageslave,
Thank you very much for putting this up on Indymedia. We would encourage anyone who has questions about the cruel treatment of animals to please sit back and at least try watch this moving film.
Great idea and well done again.
