THE NEXT PANDEMIC

A micro-documentary that juxtaposes images of industrial animal farming with a 1970s Bee Gees love song to expose the emotional dissonance between popular culture’s fantasies of tenderness and the realities of animal confinement. Through this collision of sound and image, the work illuminates the inhumane, disease-producing conditions of factory farming and asks how sentiment, denial, and industrial violence coexist in contemporary food systems.
