About the film:

"Earthlings" is a documentary about humanity's absolute
dependence on animals (for pets, food, clothing, entertainment,
and scientific research) that illustrates our 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.

Phoenix describes the film this way: "Of all the films I have
ever made, this is the one that gets people talking the most.
For every one person who sees Earthlings, they will tell three."

Testimonials:

"Earthlings is nothing short of a masterpiece! "

"Watching Earthlings is the greatest gift I have ever received.
I cannot believe how ignorant I have been in the past."
-- Bryce Dallas Howard, actress

"The single most powerful and important movie about society's
treatment of animals. A must-see for anyone who cares enough to
know."
-- Woody Harrelson
