THE GHOSTS IN OUR MACHINE

 

Award-winning filmmaker Liz Marshall (WATER ON THE TABLE) directs THE GHOSTS IN OUR MACHINE through the heart and lens of acclaimed animal photographer Jo-Anne McArthur. Haunting and heart-warming, audiences experience a diverse cast of animal subjects rescued from and living within the machine of our modern world. Over the course of a year, Marshall shadows McArthur as she photographs several animal stories in parts of the U.S., Canada and Europe, with each photograph and story serving as a window into global animal industries. This visually arresting one-of-a-kind documentary shines a cinematic light on the animals we don't easily acknowledge, the "ghosts" who are the animals trapped within the cogs of our voracious consumer world. McArthur's epic photo project We Animals is comprised of thousands of photographs taken around the world, documenting animals with heart-breaking emphatic vividness.
