Moments Of Truth
This documentary film, along with the companion book, interviews and video shorts below, comprise a single project spanning several years when I traveled throughout the United States with my dog Henry exploring human attitudes and beliefs about animals.
I interviewed farmers and ranchers, ecologists and bioethicists, research scientists, wildlife advocates, hunters and sanctuary founders, learning how they grapple with consequential choices.
I became personally invested in this subject when my love for riding horses and volunteering on small farms and ranches collided with information I encountered while considering an animal-centered career shift. Challenging realities about the ways and reasons we use animals changed the way I thought, and this turning point - or moment of truth - is what propelled me onto the road with Henry to see how other people sort through beliefs that influence the well being of all species and the environments we share.
