ALMA
65 Minutes / non-narrative / 2010 / Directed by Patrick Rouxel
A poetical film on the beauty of the Amazon forest and the harsh impact of the cattle and soy industries. It focuses on the double crime behind the cattle industry: on one hand, the deforestation for pasture and on the other, the daily merciless slaughter of cows by the thousands. This documentary invites us to question our consumer habits, to open our eyes and hearts, and allow room for empathy.
