‘Kinship’: Journey of animal advocate looking for hope, finds the precipice of a quiet revolution
Questioning whether his lifelong compassion for animals has made a difference, a filmmaker travels the world to meet those remaking our relationship with the rest of the animal kingdom. Looking for just a bit of hope, he finds himself on the precipice of a quiet revolution.
KINSHIP FILM: Kinship follows author and filmmaker Lucas Spiegel as he leaves his dog behind to explore new ways of living with animals across five countries. In Thailand, Lek Chailert’s radical kindness sets the tone for the journey. In the Himalayan foothills, Robin Singh trades a tech career for a life of rescue and service. Outside Rome, Massimo Manni builds a sanctuary alongside the animals he once bred; in the Swiss Alps, Daniel and Michèle begin transforming their family’s sheep farm into a refuge; and back in the US, kids at vegan food pioneer Miyoko Schinner’s summer camp bond with rescued farm animals. Through these stories and many more, Lucas returns home changed—having found his place in a quiet, global revolution. SOURCE
