This is a story everyone needs to know. Most people do not realize the animal suffering that is involved with so many of the products we use.

Say what you will about Ingrid Newkirk, she put animal rights activism on the map. Filmmaker Matthew Galkin was granted unprecedented access to this notoriously private co-founder of PETA, giving us glimpses of how she and her intrepid colleagues execute many of their controversial tactics, including naked demonstrations and a protest against designer Jean-Paul Gaultier inside his fur-filled Paris boutique. We also hear from PETAs detractors, who criticize their efforts as stunts or simply label them terrorists. Not for the faint of heart, the documentary is punctuated by gruesome undercover footage obtained inside research labs and slaughterhouses one scene of an animal skinned alive is particularly upsetting. These horrific images illustrate why PETA uses video to shock the public from complacency. An engrossing if not terribly penetrating study, "I Am an Animal" is a candid portrait of an organization that has become for many people the face of animal advocacy.
