Storyline
GUNDA is a feature-length documentary about the intelligence, emotions, and sensibility of animals which have been living close to us for thousands of years and mainly considered as our food: pigs, cows, and chickens. According to the latest scientific discoveries and our own experience observing and filming them: each of those animals is not merely something, but is in fact, someone! Following the ordinary lives of the three most common farm animals, we will discover their unique personalities. We will film the animals’ life at the free farm, without any interaction with people, without interviews and voice over. We want to give a “voice to” those who never had the right to say anything.
