Plots(1)

We inject a drop of the turbo-gene. We breed them in cages until their skinny legs snap like twigs. We bludgeon them, cut them open, pull their guts out and slice them to pieces. We fry, boil and eat them. Next! Chicken, pig, chicken, pig... Stop! An extraordinary encounter takes place on the assembly line. The horrific reality of the meat industry and industrial livestock farming is portrayed, with the subtlety of a juggling butcher, as a simple, animated, grotesque world, hand-drawn in black. It’s time to face what we have on our plates. After all, we, humans, are conscious, thinking primates. We can afford a little risk... can't we? (Guanajuato International Film Festival)
