WILD HORSE SPIRIT (0:07) Dir - James Kleinert
Exposing the newly passed Burn Bill which essentially legislates the slaughter of wild horses and burros.
Featuring Viggo Mortensen
THE MEATRIX II: REVOLTING (0:05) Dir - Louis Fox
The Meatrix II: Revolting is the sequel to the award-winning smash hit The Meatrix. A humorous spoof on the 'Matrix' that looks at the gap between our illusions about where food comes from and the reality of industrial meat and dairy production.
MAD COWBOY (1:40) Dir - Michael Tobias
The plain truth from the cattle rancher who won't eat meat. A biography of former rancher-turned-environmentalist Howard Lyman's journey that has led him to organic agriculture, vegetarianism, and the politics- as well as the tragedy - of Mad Cow Disease. He has dedicated his life to informing the public about ecological sustainability, wise land-use, and compassionate consumerism.
FORUM: “The CO$T of Meat”
What is the real cost of meat? How does raising animals for food affect the global environment, our natural resources, poverty and famine, global waste, and the health of the American public? And, who is actually profiting in the consumption and exploitation of meat? This Forum might be the Mother of all “Light Bulbs”.
Join us after the Film Screening as we clearly map out the interdependence of Food, Health, Environmental Preservation, Human Rights, and Animal Advocacy.
Invited speakers include Filmmakers, Community Leaders, and Celebrity Activists.
