Eating Animals Nearly all of the meat, eggs, and dairy we eat comes from the industrial system known as “factory farming.” This system destroys our environment and harms public health, and never before has humankind caused more suffering. Based on the bestselling book by Jonathan Safran Foer, narrated by producer Natalie Portman, and directed and produced by Christopher Quinn (GOD GREW TIRED OF US), Eating Animals spotlights the heroic farmers, whistleblowers, and innovators who are standing up, against all odds, to fight this system and provide a new way forward.

Featuring leading medical experts and researchers, Eating You Alive takes a scientific look at the reasons we’re so sick, who’s responsible for feeding us the wrong information and how we can use whole-food, plant-based nutrition to take control of our health—one bite at a time.

Where have we gone wrong? Why has the death rate from heart disease and cancer exploded in recent times? Why are the ice caps melting, the oceans dying and the forests being cut down as we produce the food necessary to support our burgeoning populations? Against a backdrop of colorful and delicious food grown by organic farmers and prepared in the kitchens of world-famous chefs, PLANEAT for the first time brings together the ground-breaking studies of three prominent scientists who have made it their life's work to answer these questions.
This powerful documentary film inspires us to make the right food choices; ones that can dramatically reduce the risk of heart disease and cancer, protect our environment and make our planet sustainable while celebrating the joys of food.

Speciesism The Movie The purpose of this film is to bring audiences along with me on a funny, entertaining, and engaging adventure. It’s not very graphic, and it’s not preachy. I interview the philosophers who are arguing for changing our view of animals, and put to them every major line of objection that has been formulated by philosophers and the public since this discussion began in earnest in the 1970s (this format makes these abstract segments easier to follow than they might otherwise be, by making clear who is stating the arguments for which view). Perhaps the most important purpose of these segments, though, is to also show that the beliefs held by everyday people (the “man on the street”) do not stand up to scrutiny.
You can investigate the philosophical arguments further with Peter Singer‘s book Animal Liberation, which is widely considered the best introduction to this topic, and even more deeply with the book Animal Rights: Current Debates and New Directions, which is made up of essays by the most influential scholars representing the broadest range of views on these issues.
What the Health is the groundbreaking follow-up film from the creators of the award winning documentary Cowspiracy. The film follows intrepid filmmaker Kip Andersen as he uncovers the secret to preventing and even reversing chronic diseases – and investigates why the nation’s leading health organizations don’t want us to know about it. With heart disease and cancer the leading causes of death in America, and diabetes at an all-time high, the film reveals possibly the largest health cover-up of our time.
With the help of medical doctors, researchers, and consumer advocates, What the Health exposes the collusion and corruption in government and big business that is costing us trillions of healthcare dollars, and keeping us sick.
