ALL IS ONE, THE cover image
I can't say I really like it or really dislike this film, but it definitely is educational. Some of the points made and the conversations with different people are very enlightening -- I really enjoyed the segment with the different animal advocates. The film is a composite of many different conversations between police officers and people from the community. Visually, it's not inspiring and, while the dialogue is very thought-provoking, one has to consider whether audiences have the patience to see it through. The dialogue is in German with English subtitles, which makes another commitment for the audience.

The story follows two police officers who investigate after animal scraps are piled up in front of a German slaughterhouse owner's house.

This movie is educational and informative. The story line goes into depth about animal protection and why people become vegans. The reasons given in it are also very compelling. The cinematography is still rather basic; it is clear but uninspired. The sets suit the story; the locations are pretty sparse - in front of the slaughterhouse owner's house, inside the police station and inside another nondescript location. I didn't have a particular fondness for any single character as there are a lot of characters that speak and there I no singular one the film focuses on. It's really about listening to a variety of people sharing their personal opinions about animal rights. My favorite part is the conversation with the animal advocates -- some of their theories are very interesting and thought provoking.

The film's message is: Why do we still eat meat?

I give The All Is One 4 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 12 to 18, plus adults. By Xiangxi K., KIDS FIRST!

Slaughterhouse owner Werner Haas has a ton of slaughter waste dumped on his front lawn in the middle of the night. Fuming mad, he files charges against unknown persons and foolishly sets something in motion that can't be stopped. From Germany, Dialogue in German; English subtitles
