Pignorant

One of the best documentaries I've seen, I couldn't recommend it to people enough. Don't miss this exceptional work of journalism, storytelling, suspense, editing, exposé, and inspirational messaging.

Pignorant follows animal activist and former gang member Joey Carbstrong and others as they attempt to capture the first ever publicly available footage of how around 90% of pigs are stunned and killed in the UK. Featuring many different interviews and locations Pignorant was able to keep me gripped for the duration of it's runtime despite some of the footage being tough to watch. It was incredibly informative and eye-opening and it's my hope many people see this film as I feel they deserve to know it's contents.

I've never seen a documentary that is educational, sad, enraging, funny, cute, and suspenseful... all at the same time. Pignorant is all of these things.

My girlfriend and I were discussing after we watched it, and one thing that stuck out was how well it protected its scope as well as covered all of the details within. If you're looking to learn pretty much everything you need to know about pigs and how we treat them - this is it.

I didn't cry for 15 years before watching this last night. The sound, the images, the story, the absolutely immenseness and pervasiveness of it all was too much for this grown man to handle.

Thank you for your sacrifices and work, Joey and team.

Joey and his team are heroes.

This documentary had my emotions in tatters and the suspense was gripping.

Factory farmed animals in the UK suffer through people and organisations letting them down.

The pig meat industry is barbaric and exposed in this documentary for what it really is behind the slick marketing pushed out behind RSPCA and Red Tractor labels.

This documentary blows the lid off factory farming and organisations that are supposed to protect animals that are receiving payments and percentage on sales of meat.

Watch and see the meat trade for what it is, which is nothing short of barbaric and disturbing to see how human beings can do this to animals.

10/10. Engaging, Enlightening, Exposing.

A hugely important film for those to watch, especially if you are still paying for 'humane slaughter' of animals. A real look at 'RSPCA Assured' and 'Red Tractor Approved'. Intense scenes, secret filming and confronting interviews fill this documentary; exposing some of the most horrific and eye opening practices which exist for something as meaningless as taste.

Joey and his team risk their lives in order to document the TRUTH of what happens to pigs in the UK. If you claim to be an 'animal lover' please do not hesitate from watching this hugely important film. You do not love animals if you pay for these abhorrent industries. Please watch and tell me otherwise.

This is absolutely brilliant and a MUST WATCH for anyone who still eats pigs and isn't vegan. It's also perfect for anyone who wants to find out more about how the pork industry works in the UK. Not only does Pignorant expose the UK pork industry, but it also exposes the RSPCA, Red Tractor and free-range pig farming. If you like animals, it will be really interesting as it's packed full of information about pigs that most people won't know. If you decide to skip watching Pignorant, you're definitely missing out.

A big, big thank you to Joey Carbstrong, Dan Sheppard, Tarion Partridge and the rest of the team involved in making this incredible documentary.
