We're partnering with Catskill Art Space to present a screening and discussion of Michel Negroponte’s film Herd, on Saturday, November 11 at 5pm in the CAS River Gallery. Free refreshments and popcorn will be served.
About the Film: A herd of shaggy Belted Galloway cattle is delivered to a neighboring pasture in the Catskills and instantly inspires a new film. The filmmaker’s growing fascination with the cows leads him to reflect on the modern idea of animal personhood. Michel Negroponte’s essay film is equal part rumination, observation and meditation. It reveals the cow’s essence and challenges us to think differently about our fellow living animal beings.
2023, color, 60 minutes.
World Premiere - The Thessaloniki International Film Festival
Best Documentary - The New Jersey International Film Festival
Best Documentary and Best Cinematography - The Choice International Film
