Experiential cinema in its purest form, GUNDA chronicles the unfiltered lives of a mother pig, a flock of chickens, and a herd of cows with masterful intimacy. Using stark, transcendent black and white cinematography and the farm's ambient soundtrack, Master director Victor Kossakowsky invites the audience to slow down and experience life as his subjects do, taking in their world with a magical patience and an other worldly perspective. GUNDA asks us to meditate on the mystery of animal consciousness, and reckon with the role humanity plays in it. Executive produced by Joaquin Phoenix.

OUTSTANDING MASTERPIECE
I agree with Paul Thomas Anderson, this is more of a potion than a movie... Captivating, enchanting, poetic, unforgettable, magical.... like a fragile childhood memory that you sometimes dream of in the night..... Have watched this film 4 times already, for its cinematic beauty, leave alone its soul. I believe this is one of those films that will change the course, the direction of one's life, many lives. It deserves huge audiences. Bravo to the creators from the bottom of my heart.
