Description: See the flash animation film that has challenged millions around the world to think about our food supply, THE MEATRIX, in its entirety at www.themeatrix.com

Created by Free Range Graphics for GRACE (Global Resource Action Center for the Environment), THE MEATRIX is a four minute flash animation film that has enjoyed unprecedented success as an online advocacy movie by spoofing The Matrix while taking on the problems of factory farming.

Instead of Keanu Reeves, THE MEATRIX stars a young pig, Leo, who lives on a pleasant family farm... or so he thinks. Leo is approached by a trench coated cow, Moopheus, who shows him the ugly truth about agribusiness, complete with a send-up of the "stop-motion" camerawork immortalized by The Matrix.

At the end of the movie, "action pages" provide additional information about factory farms and direct consumers to the Eat Well Guide, an online directory by zip code of local family farmers as well as markets, stores and restaurants that sell earth-friendly meats.

Join the more than 5 million people who have seen THE MEATRIX online at www.themeatrix.com where you can enjoy the complete film and take part in important "action pages" afterwards. (less)
