Quite possibly the best documentary I've ever seen. It starts out slow and eases you into the situation, then throws you for a loop with extremely insightful commentary and information to make you think. I wish I could have seen this movie years ago, as it most certainly would have kick-started my move to a more compassionate lifestyle. It's nice to see a film like this take the high road in approaching the subject from a philosophical vantage point rather than the typical shock factor approach. I think (and hope) it has the potential for opening up the much needed conversation about animal rights and ethics in general.
