“Slay is an eye-opening documentary that will have you looking at your wardrobe in a whole new, probably red tinted, light.” - Elliot Wheatland-Clinch

“This film is an absolute eye-opener and a must-watch for anyone who wants to connect to the true origins of where their clothes and shoes come from.” - Let’s Go Vegan

Film Description: SLAY is a feature documentary film exploring the interwoven harms caused by fashion’s use of fur, leather and wool. Following investigative filmmaker Rebecca Cappelli as she travels the world uncovering some of fashion’s best kept secrets, a harrowing story of greenwashing, environmental destruction, unjust treatment of workers, and animal exploitation unravels. SLAY asks an important question to the public, and the fashion industry itself: Is it acceptable to kill animals for fashion? Winner of the 2022 International Vegan Film Festival’s Best Vegan-Themed Feature Film

We will also be screening one of the One Earth Young Filmmakers winning films Black Tide by Chloe Ban.

Stay after the film for an enlightening facilitated dialogue with relevant experts and advocates.
