Humans and Other Animals is a documentary film project.

For centuries humans have viewed other animals simply as resources to be used, or at best as unimportant others who don't really warrant a second thought. 

In the last few decades this view has very much changed, and we are now looking at a society who almost wholly accept that animals other than humans have some sort of moral worth.

There are groups fighting for animal rights, some fighting for higher standards of animal welfare, there are vegetarians, vegans, ethical omnivores, and of course a majority of the public who are largely swept along in a current of confusion.

And amidst all this confusion, it's difficult to see if there is an obligation to do any of these things at all, or whether we are all just being anthropomorphic by projecting human characteristics onto non-humans.

This is what we want to explore.
