"At best, man is the noblest of all animals, separated by justice he is the worst" - Aristotle
What happens when a new law is enforced that ruins the lives of a generation of shepherds?
Italian filmmaker, Achille D'Onofrio's poignant award winning documentary graphically looks at the consequences of an order to euthanize an entire herd of sheep based on public fear over investigation and research.
