Gunda VOD // Hot Docs at Home
“A work of genius…this is a film that finds beauty everywhere” (The Guardian). Shortlisted for a 2020 Academy Award and executive produced by Joaquin Phoenix, this experiential masterpiece offers an intimate look at the daily lives of a sow and her rambuctious piglets, a one-legged chicken and a herd of cows on a farm in Norway. Using transcendent black and white cinematography, and an entirely wordless soundtrack, acclaimed director Victor Kossakovsky (Aquarela) invites you to slow down and view the world as these wondrous creatures do: with a magical patience and an other-worldly perspective. Along the way, Gunda also asks us to meditate on the mystery of animal consciousness—and reckon with the role humanity plays in it.
