THE GHOSTS IN
OUR MACHINE is a multi-award winning consciousness raising documentary
that gently reveals one of the most haunting moral dilemmas of our modern
world. While the provocative film BLACKFISH made
waves for exposing the consequences of keeping orcas in captivity, GHOSTS illuminates the plight of
many other animals rescued from and living within the machine of our
modern world, from captive foxes to rescued dairy cows.
Award-winning filmmaker Liz Marshall directs this visually
arresting documentary through the heart and lens of photojournalist Jo-Anne
McArthur. The film follows
Jo-Anne over the course of a year as she documents several animal stories in
parts of Canada, the U.S. and in Europe. Each story and photograph is a window
into global animal industries: Food; Fashion; Entertainment and Biomedical
Research.
This screening is hosted by a local NJ vegan activist,
Allyson Dwyer, who is looking to bring together the central New Jersey
community for a night of awareness and discussion. For more information please
