Following the recent and extremely successful, albeit tear-jerking Netflix release of OKJA and ‘Land of Hope and Glory’ due for released on August 1st, another new film; ‘The End of Meat’ is set to release on August 26th in Berlin.
This groundbreaking documentary envisions exactly the kind of world we all need to strive towards creating and sustaining with a meat-free future. In The End of Meat, filmmaker Marc Pierschel investigates the impacts of a world absent of meat consumption and provides a fresh perspective which helps people to understand how crucial their daily choices are for the planet, animals and humanity’s survival.
Pierschel will make us all envious when we see him meet the internet phenomenom, ‘Esther the Wonder Pig’ and farm animals frolicking in their rescued freedom (queue the audible awwws!), visit the world’s first 100% vegetarian city (Palitana, India) and talk to pioneers who are leading the German vegan revolution; seriously, Germany has become a haven of vegan substitutes and glorious cruelty-free foods!
What’s more? The documentary will show you the innovative food of the future; animal products made without animal products! This raises critical questions in regard to the use of animals as part of the human diet and their role in society.
‘Instead of domesticating animals, we’re domesticating cells.’ – This will even include ‘bacon’ that is harvested from the ocean…
