Humans and Other Animals takes viewers on an epic journey, from witnessing firsthand how animals think, use language, and feel love...to dangerous investigations of powerful industries, using custom-built equipment and never-before-attempted tactics...to a profound philosophical idea that may forever change how we view other animals—and ourselves.

For the first time, a single documentary includes the evidence for other animals' sentience, investigations into the hidden animal-using industries, the philosophical case for a profound shift in how we view other animals, and the empowering steps that individuals and institutions can take—all in a way that is thrilling to watch and easy to share.

Humans and Other Animals takes on—in the most comprehensive and engaging manner yet put to film—what may soon become a defining issue of our time.

"Humans and Other Animals is an excellent examination of our complex and contradictory relationships with other animals. Through rigorous research and compelling storytelling, it challenges our treatment of other animals as well as our beliefs and values about them. Equal parts intellectually and emotionally engaging, this documentary is required viewing for anyone who seeks to understand not only how we interact with other animals but also how our most deeply held scientific and ethical assumptions interact with our everyday attitudes and behaviors."—Jeff Sebo, associate professor of Environmental Studies, affiliated professor of Bioethics, Medical Ethics, Philosophy, and Law; director of Center for Environmental and Animal Protection, New York University; author of Saving Animals, Saving Ourselves
