54- Vegan Film Review: Pignorant (2024)
In this episode Julie, Kate & Ant give their reactions to Pignorant, a documentary produced by Joey Carbstrong that has recently been released onto Amazon Prime for streaming.
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pignorant-Joey-Carbstrong/dp/B0CV8HQ3QV
The trailers for the film seemed very centred on the human 'stars' of the film rather than the pigs, but is this film an ego project, or in fact a real solid addition to the suite of animal rights documentaries?
Warning- this episode contains spoilers, and the film itself contains footage of animals that many viewers will find distressing
