Do you have the courage to watch it? They had the courage to make it...

[Guest guest]

Be prepared for the worst visions of your entire life.

Be brave for the animals and watch the entire documentary.

Hold their pain as your own and be forever changed.

I received the film and I watched it last night. I highly recommend everyone do

the same.

 

It is not an easy watch. This film covers the pet industry, the food industry,

the clothing industry, the medical testing industry and enviromental impact. I

did not see anything that I have not seen before...but the film, with it's

haunting music and straightforward narration and truths...is very powerful and

moving. It's a tool for us as activists, so use it. Buy the dvd, link above, and

share it with everyone you can.

 

I did learn that no distributor has the courage to even carry this film. Are

they so afraid of the truth? It really IS up to us to spread the word.

 

From the director's Blog: http://isawearthlings.com/shaunsblog/

 

" Even a film like EARTHLINGS, a relatively small budget documentary with an

Academy Award nominated and Golden Globe winning actor headlining it (Joaquin

Phoenix) cannot find a distributor brave enough to release it. Or so it seems.

But we are the distributors, as it turns out ... you and I. "

 

So order the film and spread the word about this labor of love by Director Shaun

Monson and narrated by Joaquin Phoenix.

If I can ease one life the aching, Or cool one pain,

Or help one fainting robin into his nest again,

I shall not live in vain. "
