I hoped to get more information about the religious background of India and how Ahimsa was founded, I feel like I only got the most basic explanation of what it is. Most of the documentary is the basic information that people need for the push to go vegan. This was made for an Indian audience and has a ton of Indian people and activists. Various Indian vegan businesses get promoted at the end.
I think people pour lots of milk for religious rituals in India based on the footage. There was this specific God that apparently drank milk, but the experts suggest not taking the teachings literally as they do lots of other impossible things. India is the 5th largest meat producer in the world currently, people in India use a lot of meat and oils when they have other traditional alternatives, lentils, greens, seeds.
There were a lot of animal rights activists that I haven't seen before in this movie and I am happy to see how people from the other side of the world are fighting this issue although it would be better if they had it solved. India is large and it would be amazing if people there went vegan, but I find that to be super hopeful even if they have Ahimsa. Ahimsa is the ethical virtue of not causing harm towards other beings, but most people in India seem to not uphold it whatsoever.
This documentary had dramatic telenovela editing at one point which was amusing. I liked the part where they discuss how we resemble herbivores more and how they mention the long nails curling, I had no idea. I also probably forgot that a long intestine system was something that carnivores don't have.
