UNANIMAL

NORTH AMERICAN PREMIERE Beautifully composed and subtly unsettling, Unanimal interrogates the entangled, often contradictory relationship between humans and animals. Narrated with calm detachment by Isabella Rossellini, the essay film offers a critical yet poetic historical lens on the evolution of our cohabitation with nonhuman life. It creates space for viewers to question the ways we project meaning onto animals, and how our frameworks of science, entertainment, and affection shape their lives—and ours. – Ruth Somalo

The first screening will be followed by a Q&A with directors Tuva Bjork and Sally Jacobson.

All in-person screening venues provide sound amplification headphones upon request with venue management. IFC Center can also provide a T-Coil loop for compatible devices.
