> On only its 3rd night on-air, Channel 4 screened The Animals Film broadcasting
it entirely uninterrupted by any commercial breaks. This remarkable, pioneering
and definitive documentary about the exploitation of animals in modern society
caused huge shockwaves and received worldwide critical acclaim: Pick-of-the-Week
& Pick-of-the-Day in all UK national newspapers, and extensively covered in
front-page news and feature stories across the world. 25 years after its
release, this controversial classic is still shockingly relevant today in its
analysis. With music by Talking Heads and Robert Wyatt.
