[imc-auckland-video] Foie gras

[Chloe Heffernan (FOA POL)]

sounds good debbie
foie gras production really is awful
Nice to have some animal rights stuff again too
Agree with G about not being too precious on production values - (though
clips need to be watchable - i.e. within reason) - I mean we are supposed to
be INDYmedia right?
perhaps the foie gras doco with one or two newsreel clips + east timor short
in first half (35 mins approx)
outfoxed in second

sorry guys i was meant to come but double booked myself.

I have a 16min dvd that might be good...its about a foie gras duck 
rescue ...
interesting story cos the doco maker was arrested at a screening of this 
video.
also foie gras has just been (kindof ) banned (with an annoying 12 year 
phase out period) in a state in the US.

might be too long - i could always do a cutdown version...

Its called delicacy of despair.
