From the producers of the award-winning documentary The Witness

soon comes the new movie Peacable Kingdom – The Journey Home

The Faces of “Free-Range” Farming

The truth about “free-range”, “cage-free” and “humane” eggs, dairy and meat.

Maybe it’s time to go vegan

Only a few of the innumerable reasons why I’m a vegan.

Behind the Mask

This new documentary is called Behind the Mask and is about the animal liberation movement. The movie is well done and has the potential to reach a wide audience.

Laughing Rats

Intuition tells us that non-human animals also experience basic feelings such as joy, sorrow and pain. Now even science confirms that rats can laugh.

Monster hog

Wow! This is one HUGE hog. Very impressive.
But did they really have to kill it just to take a photograph?

Unspeakable Fish Cruelty

Swiss National Circus Knie

The Swiss national circus Knie just started its 89th tour. As usual, animals are an important part of the show. In contrast to Knie’s claims about the excellent welfare of its animals is this new video by AZOT (Aktion Zirkus ohne Tiere). The displayed “rocking” or “weaving” behavior by the elephants is abnormal and typical for animals in captivity without enough freedom.

Bella’s Journey

This video should not suggest raising more piglets for pets, but it helps to illustrate how playful and cute these animals are. Most people probably think of themselves as animal-friendly, yet they see this completely absurd distinction between animals used for food and beloved pets. Both are sentient living beings that deserve a free life on this planet as much as we do.

Happy Feet

Going to see Happy Feet I expected a typical and formulated Disney-style film. By the end, however, I was positively surprised by this movie. Not only was it funny and entertaining, but it also carried an important and urgent message. I can recommend this movie because it is more than just pure entertainment, as it tries to raise awareness about the real and imminent issue of over-fishing the world’s oceans. It would be great to see more children’s movies addressing such issues.
