Franck is an insignificant drama-teacher by day, but also belongs to a nameless and leaderless militant organisation - the Animal Liberation Front. These characters are bound by a limitless empathy towards mistreated animals, and will have to show courage to complete a mission they have been preparing for months. Their goal is to free dogs, condemned to be sold to laboratories for the purpose of live experiments. Their philosophy: when something has gone beyond the boundaries of reason, you have to forget about what's legal, and care about what seems right. During the questioning, Franck understands that one of his fellow campaigners betrayed him.

- DirectorTom SimonSarah TealeStarsPeteBradley MillerBob BakerDeath on a Factory Farm follows the undercover investigation of Wiles Hog Farm by the animal rights group: The Humane Farming Association (HFA), and the resulting court case against it. The organization received a tip from an employee at the farm that animals were being abused, including a claim that hogs were being hung by chains and strangled to death as a form of euthanasia. Horrifying but true. HFA then turned to an undercover investigator going by the name "Pete." The investigator wore a hidden camera while he worked undercover as a farmhand at Wiles. Over the course of six weeks, the investigator secretly filmed numerous incriminating scenes, including piglets being tossed into crates from across a room, impregnated sows held in pens impeded their ability to move, an unhealthy piglet being hit against a wall to euthanize it, and a sick sow being hung by a chain from a forklift until it choked to death. Having obtained this evidence, Pete concluded the investigation and quit the job at the farm. HFA brought Pete's footage to the Wayne County Sheriff's Department, which then raided the farm. Prosecutors filed ten criminal charges of animal cruelty against the farm's owners, and a farm employee who participated in hanging the sow. In the subsequent trial, the prosecutors and the defense fought about the legality and morality of these practices, described by the presiding judge as "distasteful and offensive". However, the Judge defended these practices as the reality of producing pork for consumption. Disgusting!
- DirectorBrian HillThe vast majority of people in Britain eat meat but have little knowledge of how that meat ends up on their table. In a powerful observational documentary, Slaughterhouse: The Task of Blood reveals the day-to-day workings of a small, family-run abattoir and attempts to get inside the minds of the people who work there. It's a hidden part of British life, but the reality is that thousands of animals are slaughtered every day in abattoirs. This film shows the process of meat production as animals are killed, butchered and stored in fridges before being transported to retail outlets. It reveals the attitudes of the workers to their task, their colleagues and life.
- DirectorLee IovinoStarsJames CromwellNarrated by Academy Award nominee James Cromwell, this powerful film takes viewers on an eye-opening exploration behind the closed doors of the nations largest industrial poultry, pig, dairy, and fish farms, hatcheries, and slaughter plants - revealing the often-unseen journey that animals make from Farm to Fridge.

McDougall. These experts discuss the potential adverse effects of meat consumption on human health.
- StarsJane AkreRichard BurroughsAndrew KimbrellFarmers find themselves in disbelief as genetic scientists from the American biotechnology corporation Monsanto seek a global patent for pigs. If granted, pig breeding could only occur with the corporation's permission. Over time, as breeding progresses, all pigs would inevitably carry the patented genes, forcing farmers to pay the foreign corporation. Farmer Christoph Zimmer attempts to demonstrate through DNA tests that the patent application involves no innovations, asserting that ordinary pigs could fall into the hands of a single company. If Monsanto's plans materialize, every pig farmer with the patented gene would be required to send money to Monsanto.
- DirectorSharon BoeckleStarsPaula BaconMilton BagbyDean BolstadHorse slaughter is more than inhumane. It's big business.
- DirectorRyan ShapiroOver half a million ducks are confined, tortured, and slaughtered in factory farms every year in the United States to produce the gourmet cruelty foie gras. Just two companies are responsible for all of this suffering--Hudson Valley Foie Gras in New York and Sonoma Foie Gras in California. Most people have no idea that these factory farms even exist, much less what goes on inside them. Confined in crowded pens and tiny isolation cages, and force fed three times a day to fatten their livers, these ducks suffer unseen. GourmetCruelty.com takes you behind the closed doors of the entire U.S. foie gras industry, exposing the daily pain and torture inherent to the production of this cruel delicacy. Over the course of its yearlong investigation (2002-2003), GourmetCruelty.com investigators were able to rescue fifteen of these long suffering birds. Delicacy of Despair is the haunting portrait of the tens of thousands of ducks who are left behind and the fifteen who found freedom.

- DirectorDon McCorkellStarsJoanne BurkholderLarry CahoonParris N. GlendeningThis heart-stopping documentary exposes a huge health and environmental scandal in our modern industrial system of meat and poultry production. Some scientists have gone so far as to condemn current factory farms as Mini Chernobyls. In the U.S. and elsewhere, the meat and poultry industry is dominated by dangerous uses of arsenic, antibiotics, growth hormones and by the dumping of massive amounts of sewage in fragile waterways and environments. The film documents the vast catastrophic impact their practices have on the environment and public health, as well as the individual lives damaged and destroyed.
- DirectorJenny SteinStarsGene BaurLorri BaustonHarold BrownPeaceable Kingdom: The Journey Home explores the powerful struggle of conscience experienced by several people from traditional farming backgrounds who come to question the basic assumptions of their way of life. A riveting story of transformation and healing, the documentary portrays the farmers' sometimes amazing connections with the animals under their care, while also providing insight into the complex web of social, psychological and economic forces that have led to their inner conflict. Interwoven with the farmers' stories is the dramatic animal rescue work of a newly-trained humane police officer whose sense of justice puts her at odds with the law she is charged to uphold. With strikingly honest interviews and rare footage demonstrating the emotional lives and intense family bonds of animals most often viewed as living commodities, this groundbreaking documentary shatters stereotypical notions of farmers, farm life, and perhaps most surprisingly, farm animals themselves.

- DirectorAdam DurandStarsNathan RunkleAmie ToddLiz PerryFowl Play is a documentery about the treatment of egg laying hens and other animals. It goes inside of egg corporations that people buy from everyday, and exposes how those animals are being treated, abused, and killed.
- Although this documentary was created by the Russian non-profit organization "VITA Animal Rights Center," most of the presented video footage originates from England. In fact, footage from Russian farms would be even more distressing, as there is no substantial animal protection legislation in place. Towards the end, the narrator discusses vegetarianism as a more ecologically and ethically conscious lifestyle. The documentary does not include any graphic footage from slaughterhouses.
- DirectorManu CoemanStarsMarcio AstriniYves BergerMarie-Françoise BrizardMeat production increases every year, but many people still have no idea what's on their plate or what it has taken to get it there. "We eat meat, but killing animals doesn't really happen," says philosopher Florence Burgat. She is one of the many experts who have their say in director Manu Coeman's fierce indictment of the industrialized meat industry. LoveMEATender is packed with facts and figures, particularly in the first half, presented through clear comparisons and playful animations. The objective is to demonstrate the consequences of our excessive meat consumption: for the animals, for the earth, but also for our own bodies. Even people with very tough skin will have to swallow hard when seeing some of Coeman's shots. Chicks that are chucked down a funnel with a thud, floundering cows at a slaughterhouse, geese having food violently forced down their throats. Yet at the same time, LoveMEATender isn't a pessimistic film. Coeman's approach is hopeful, and he also shows us how things could be done differently.
- DirectorMarrin CanellTed RemerowskiStarsLateef AdewoyeShiv ChopraTom ElamFRANKENSTEER is a disturbing yet compelling documentary that reveals how the ordinary cow is being transformed into an antibiotic dependent, hormone-laced potential carrier of toxic bacteria, all in the name of cheaper food.

- DirectorKilian DreißigStarsPetra ForsterDo you believe that adopting a vegan lifestyle means sacrificing something, deeming it unrealistic and unattainable in today's world? Quite the opposite. In an era marked by environmental degradation, animal exploitation, and escalating obesity, there's a pressing need to pause and reconsider what's on our plates. This film dispels preconceptions and underscores the significance of reassessing our lifestyle choices. It delves into the health, environmental, and ethical reasons that underscore the critical importance of embracing a vegan lifestyle in today's context.

- DirectorMachteld DetmersStarsJochen BusseMachteld DetmersThe documentary gives a detailed picture of the life of the pig. A life governed by as much growth as possible in as short a time as possible. We see how Knor is born on the breeding farm in the north of the Netherlands. After a few days, his tail is clipped and he is castrated. Together with his brothers and sisters, Knor spends the first ten weeks of his life here. Dramatic change enters his life when he is moved to the pig farm owned by Geert Roossien in Anevelde and spends the last 15 weeks of his life, in the company of 1600 other pigs.

- For more than a decade, German filmmaker Manfred Karremann has been reporting on the treatment of animals, particularly the abuses of livestock. His undercover documentaries contain disturbing footage of cattle transports, where cows suffer shocking treatment on the way to slaughter. Many are transported across three countries--a journey that can last as long as a week. And despite stricter laws, animals with injuries--even those with broken limbs--continue to be transported. While Karremann's exposés have earned him awards--as well as threats--they have also brought needed attention to the efforts of some farmers to reduce the amount of suffering livestock endure. Deeply concerned about the well-being of his animals, Austrian farmer Herbert Schwaiger has developed an innovative means to reduce the stress and suffering cattle experience just prior to slaughter. Instead of subjecting the animals to a long, cramped and painful journey to the slaughterhouse, Schwaiger has created a mobile slaughter truck. The truck drives from farm to farm and two butchers take care of all the work. This makes an animal's last journey short and free of fear and stress. In addition to being a more humane process, this treatment has also proved beneficial to farmers and their customers. Studies have shown that stress lowers the quality considerably. When animals are constantly forced to balance themselves in transport vehicles, the sugar in their muscles is used up, which negatively affects the quality of the meat. This film chronicles the efforts of Schwaiger and others, including organic farmers, to encourage a more humane treatment of livestock. These proponents argue that eliminating unnecessary stress and fear will result in higher quality meat. And better meat means healthier living. Warning: Some viewers will find the images of cattle abuse and scenes of slaughter disturbing. In German with English subtitles.
- StarsRichard Kiley"The Pig Picture" highlights never before seen Humane Farming Association investigative footage. This powerful 18-minute video traces the development of commercial pig rearing in America, from the small-scale family farms of yesterday to the corporate owned pig factories of today.

- DirectorJutta PinzlerStarsPaul KröfgesOver the last 50 years, worldwide meat consumption has surged fivefold. While Europe has historically had a substantial meat diet, the appetite for meat is now on the rise in countries like China and India. However, the craving for meat comes with critical consequences. In China, changes in eating habits contribute to increasing health problems among the population. In Paraguay, the export of food to Europe leads to extreme poverty, while in France and Germany, extensive agriculture poses a threat to groundwater, and the climate is suffering globally. Many animals raised for meat are treated like machines, living out their short lives crammed together in smelly barns.
- The documentary shows secretly filmed footage of farm animals being beaten in the face with sticks as they are being loaded and unloaded from transport. To force them to walk to the slaughter, they are driven by stabbing with pitchforks, shocked by electric shocks, or tearing their tails. The strong smell of dismembered bloody bodies gives the animals in line a clear signal of their fate and puts them in a state of mortal anxiety where they urinate in fear. The animal, which is chased immediately in front of the death box, sees with its own eyes the bloody execution that awaits it in a moment. When it is driven into the death box, there is no escape. They put a slaughter gun to its forehead, and the animal immediately falls to the ground with its skull pierced. But it's not dead, just stunned.
- Animal welfare video on poultry farming and catching. Reveals the cruelty meted out to young broilers at the time of catching. Catchers carry birds by one leg, often four or five in each hand when collecting younger birds.
- DirectorMischa HedgesStarsEd Begley Jr.James CromwellMarc GrossmanOver nine months, Mischa Hedges and Digital Sense Productions traveled the west coast to learn more about our food system. During production, he found that the standard methods of producing food do not take environmental or human health costs into consideration. He also explored the many alternatives to the current agricultural system. Sustainable Table includes interviews with: Howard Lyman: Author of "Mad Cowboy" Kenneth Williams: Champion Vegan Bodybuilder Fred Kirschenmann, PhD: Fellow, Leopold Center for Sustainable Agriculture Marc Grossman: Spokesman for United Farm Workers Actors/activists Ed Begley Jr., James Cromwell and many more. Digital Sense worked with individuals representing The Sierra Club, P.E.T.A., The University of California at Davis, Organic Valley Dairy Farms, Chapman University and many others while producing this film. The result is a documentary that takes an unadulterated look into the food you eat. VIEWER QUOTES "...it all goes down with little sense of preachiness. In fact, the film's overall impression is that it is oriented toward getting the average American to watch without fear or alienation." -VegNews Magazine "I can't tell you how many times we told our children to eat their steak or they wouldn't get any dessert. This film has profoundly affected the way I will feed my family in the future." -Anonymous viewer "There is no question that the film itself brings up a lot of interesting topics, and if nothing else really does make you stop and think about what you are consuming and why."-Sacatomato food blog "I have been showing it to everyone and really trying to spread the word. I have become vegetarian and am doing what I can to help. It made a huge impact on me and I know it will to many more people also." -Viewer
- Flashes of Flesh bring the process of processing living beings, often thought of as mere commodities, closer to the moment they are sent for sale or purchase. The accompanying human voice commentary in this documentary is replaced by the endless groans, moans, and wails of animals, who speak for themselves. The film depicts scenes that might make people reconsider their dietary choices. It addresses speciesism as a mindset that normalizes these horrors in our collective consciousness, rather than seeing them as natural.
- DirectorMichal KolesárStarsPeter BeckMarcela FreiMichal KolesárAnimal rights activist Michal Kolesár comments on the blockade of trucks transporting horses to the slaughterhouse and shares insights into other activist activities.
- DirectorPhilippe RadaultThis film proposes placing the audience on the side of the living animal, during its short stay in a big modern slaughterhouse. From there, it could be that the sensations, emotions and intuitions experienced by mammals appear to us as strangely familiar.
- 1994– 44mTV EpisodeDirectorManfred KarremannStarsIris BaumgärtnerYork DitfurthSabrina GurtnerA shocking insight into how animals exported from Europe as livestock are routinely exposed to appalling conditions and abused.

A compelling documentary that certifies, once more, man's tyrannical dominion over this planet.

- DirectorShannon KeithStarsShane BarbiSia BarbiEd Begley Jr.Fur is sexy, beautiful, sensuous and luxurious. Nothing feels better against your skin, and beautiful, sexy, successful people wear it. Fur is also environmentally friendly and is therefore a sustainable resource. These are the campaigns the fur industry uses to get people to commit the ultimate atrocities permitted against animals. Consumers are misled by retailers who assure them that animals used for fur are humanely euthanized, intentionally hiding the reality of how the animals are hideously killed. Step inside the world of SKIN TRADE. Hundreds of hours of interviews with insiders, designers, leaders and celebrities compiled in a heart punching documentary directed and produced by award winning director Shannon Keith. This film lends a voice to the voiceless whose skin is ripped from them while often still alive. Understand what makes this savage industry tick and what it will take to change it.

- StarsCandice BergenBelinda CarlisleJane GoodallNarrated by actor Candice Bergen, this videotape celebrates the achievements of PETA's first 10 years.
- DirectorBrian StormThe wildlife trade is the third largest illegal trade in the world, rivaled only by guns and drugs. Every year up to 30,000 primates, 2 to 5 million birds and 10 million reptile skins are traded. Strong beliefs in obscure parts of traditional Chinese medicine fuel the development. According to ancient custom, animal parts are imbued with "magical" properties. For the superstitious, eating the flesh of a tiger provides the animal's strength. Despite scientific studies proving these beliefs wrong, the trade of animals and animal parts continues largely unchecked, fueled by desire, greed and corruption. The problem seems insurmountable; one way of curbing the rampant killing and to decrease the demand for rare animals is by educating future generations and removing antiquated and false beliefs.

Despite its good reception, it has rarely been seen by the public.
- DirectorVanessa SchulzStarsTimothy BarksdaleNedim C. BuyukmihciFranz CamenzindEvery year, between 4 and 5 million animals are trapped and killed in the United States for the commercial fur trade. Millions more are killed because they accidentally stumble into traps meant for other species. CULL OF THE WILD examines the history and the legacy of the trapping industry in America today. The film explains and demonstrates different types of traps, and the viewer gets to see trapping from the point of view of the trapper as well as the animals. Interviews with wildlife biologists, veterinarians, and other experts detail the dangers to "nontarget" wildlife and household pets as trappers move away from commercial trapping and begin to specialize in killing "nuisance" animals.
