We Are Blood (2015)

The owner of the dairy farm that this video is about seems like a kind and dedicated guy who has a good relationship with his cattle. He is not very charismatic though, and I have seen more clever videos about farming on YouTube. There were no “laugh out loud” moments that I saw in is film contrary to the description of the film. I did see several calfs being born up close and personal. One born in the field had flies swarming all over the mother’s nose while she was trying to push out the calf. Not very pretty. A couple being born in the barn needed help. While the owner who was not a very big guy, struggled to pull the calf out, two big guys just stood around watching. I thought that was rude and weird. Although many owners shoot male calf’s right at birth, this guy lets them live a few years before he has them sent to slaughter. At one point he was cutting up fresh meat while talking about the personality of the calf that had been just killed. That to me seemed totally bizarre. I really thought this film needed better editing. Toward the end, a cow was getting ready to die in the field. He brought it water, talked and petted it before leaving. I have no idea if a vet was called before and what the cow was dying from. If that was going to be shown, I think that information should also been included. The ending talked about how many dairy farms in the UK are closing. If this film was meant to bring attention to dairy farms to get support, they really needed a better film crew and director to help it along. Nothing against the farmer. He just needed better help to present a better film for his farm.
