A Path to Better Futures? (2012)

Film shows extremely disturbing footage of severe animal suffering taken in a number of countries and makes it clear that there continue to be serious breaches of the OIE's recommendations on welfare during transport and slaughter. Film includes footage of the following: Cattle in an Egyptian slaughterhouse being beaten on the head with a large pole while other animals have their leg tendons slashed. Also in Egypt, cattle being stabbed repeatedly in the neck until finally they collapse to the ground. And, in Indonesia, live cattle being unloaded from a ship. A crane is used to hoist them - hanging by their heads in groups of three - from the ship to a waiting truck.
