In this film, we reflect on some of the reasons why animal sanctuaries are needed. Other animals are often victims of neglect or harm, due to the ways they tend to be perceived and used, such as to provide resources for human use (food, clothing, and so on).
Sanctuaries such as Hillside provide us with a unique insight into how animals can survive these difficult circumstances, and go on to live fulfilling lives, protected from further harm. In the film, we reflect on how these inspiring individual stories can help us to imagine a less harmful future for all other animals.
