Movie Info

Directors Shelley Lee Davies and Or Shlomi examine the global struggle to eat a healthy, environmentally-sustainable diet. Backed by supporting evidence from scientists and health professionals, they present the theory that a heavily meat-based diet is not only detrimental to one's health, but to the planet as well. However, with some creative thinking and tips from some prominent chefs, they argue that it's possible to eat a healthy, primarily meat-free diet that is also kind to the earth. ~

A movie by true believers for true believers, and I am not one.

PlanEat is on a serious mission but its lack of focus is infectious. My big question as the credits rolled: why are so many vegan chefs covered in tattoos?

Possibly it ought to come with a warning: contains traces of smugness.

Forceful stuff, though we can take or leave the kale sandwiches.

Audience Reviews for Planeat

its time to think outside the box and start to wean ourselves off of meat and dairy if we want to feed the world, improve our health and save the planet. this can be a hard message to hear when we are inundated with messages that we need meat for protein and milk for bones. we don't. this movie does a nice job of presenting some sound science on the unhealthy and environmentally degrading effects of an animal based diet. Yet the data presented in this movie is only the tip of the ice berg. It wasn't nearly as damming as the UN's report entitled Livestock's Long Shadow which is a more chilling account of the damage that animal agriculture wrecks on our environment. What this movie does a nice job of is present appetizing vegan alternatives via the featured chefs.

Detailed and fascinating look at the benefits and pleasures of a plant-based diet!
