    A must watch for all who wear clothes!

    An outstanding film by fashion lovers that uncovers in a very watchable, informative and inclusive way, the shocking hidden truths of the cruelty, exploitation and environmental destruction involved in fashion. It has many uplifting, forward-looking messages on how fashion can be changed for good.

    Well researched with detailed facts that even those who are well-informed on sustainability may find to be shocking and revelatory. There are also inspiring case studies on the trailblazers who are embracing ethical and sustainable fashion.

    Let's pray this film ushers in a kinder future for fashion, animals, people, and the planet. Global compassion in fashion is needed urgently!

    Eye-Opening

    Great demonstration of what is happening. Entertaining, in the format, and chilling in the content.

    It's great to have access and see what is happening "behind the scene". It walks you through different businesses and different continents looking for the source of what we wear everyday, what we have on our skin.

    And it does a very good job in getting under our skin.

    Hopefully more brands and citizens will see this documentary to be better informed, and take better decisions for their future (and ours).

    I sent the link to watch it to several of my friends to spread the knowledge. After learning more about what we put in our plates, it is high time we know more about what we put on ourselves.

    Must watch

    Slay is a great documentary film that not only features people talking to the camera but also covers a lot of ground work for fur, leather and wool in several countries like India, China, Australia and Europe.

    One thing I really appreciate as I am quite sensitive, is that despite the topic being about animals (and planet and human rights) there is nothing graphic on the screen. I used to think leather and wool were fine and okay for the planet, and I was shocked by the facts, the data and the images that came from these industries. I am really recommending it to anyone interested in fashion, sustainability or simply making better choices.

    Surprisingly Informative and Well Shot

    Slay is a very informative documentary about the fashion industry's darkest kept secret: the impacts that our clothing has on the earth and its inhabitants.

    Most documentaries are primarily focused on the content, but this documentary is also very well shot and thought-out. Often documentaries can come off as agenda-pushing, but this documentary was very balanced and presented the viewer with all of the right information to make informed decisions in our own lives.

    I'll certainly be reevaluating my clothing choices having learned a lot more about the impact of my clothing purchases on the world.

    To paraphrase a quote from the film: we all wear clothing, so we should all care about fashion and where it comes from.

    All the gory truth about leather, fur and animal testing

    This is a documentary that has come out right in time when everyone is talking about the role of animals in our lives, for food, fashion and what not. Disclaimer: There are some graphic videos showing how fur animals are tortured, electrocuted and killed. Same with leather and other things in fashion. Most people are comfortably unaware of the goings on in the fashion industry where animals are unnecessarily tortured when there are non-animal alternatives that are a lot more sustainable. Everyone should definitely watch this documentary as it affects one and all.

    It is high time we leave animals out of our plates, clothes and cosmetics and this documentary definitely provides the impetus to do just that.
