Beastly: 40,000 Years of Animals and Us

Our short film with Keggie Carew, author of Beastly, explores what it means to be human, what it means to be animal, and what it means to be both.
11th Apr 2024

Keggie Carew is the author of BEASTLY: A New History of Animals and Us, which recounts the gargantuan story of our complex relationship with the animal world.

At a point in history our interactions with Earth’s billions of other non-human inhabitants went awry: we began to think of ourselves as separate from the natural world around us.

Our short film featuring Carew shows us what it means to be human, what it means to be animal, and what it means to be both.

“Our paradigm needs to change about what’s valuable in the world. Animals could save us; the paradox is we now have to save them.”
