This is your opportunity to be the good person you believe you are. Watch this movie.
This is a documentary that many won't find easy to watch. That's exactly the point. It won't be a happy one. But you have the opportunity to make things better. For you, and for everyone else around you. This movie is for everyone.
Be strong, be honest to yourself. Be really honest. Watch it.
Do not call yourself an animal lover if you disagree. Loving your dog is not analogous to that. This movie is educational, and is about respect. Respect to everyone who wants to live.
Watch this movie. Watch it. Watch it today.

I would recommend this to anyone. Especially those open minded people who want to get a better understanding of the world.
Watching this was like a rollercoster of emotions, thoughts and questions. There were so many things I learned and realized from watching this.
This made me question a lot of things I've never thought about or naturally just taken for granted as a truth.
The title is good as it refers to the word "ignorant". That's exactly how I felt I was before watching this.
I've seen a lot of Joey's work before. His story, dedication and willpower says a lot.
You will not regret watching this, but you might regret something else. Something you will become aware of after watching it.

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.

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.
