Beauty Without Cruelty (1977)

Made in India, the program concerns the commercial exploitation of animals. First, animals are shown in their natural habitat and then after each sequence people are shown wearing the products used. The slaughter of elephants for ivory, silkworm breeding, killing of snakes for the skins, the capture and killing of musk deer for the perfume trade, cattle slaughter for leather, hairs being plucked from live pigs for brush bristles, slaughter of dogs for their skins, rabbit farming, and Karakul (Persian lamb farming) are all shown, and in conclusion there is a survey of alternative products. The distributors suggest that the presenter should view the video before showing it and that tape is not suitable for children.
