Cow is a 2021 British documentary film by Andrea Arnold, revolving around the life of a dairy cow.
The film premiered at the Cannes Film Festival on 8 July 2021.
Synopsis
The film, shot in cinéma vérité-style, portrays the life of a female dairy cow,[1] called Luma, at Park Farm in Kent, England.
Production
Andrea Arnold had wanted to make a documentary revolving around an animal for years, and considered making one about a chicken, but ultimately kept coming back to a cow because she found their lives "interesting to look at."[2] The film follows a milking cow and her calf, with Arnold warning the farmers about the potential response their farm would receive once the film was released.[3][4] Arnold wanted the audience to "see" the cow, with real feelings, as well as "show the aliveness of a nonhuman animal."[5][6] Production took place over the course of several years, with post-production taking place while Arnold was editing the second season of Big Little Lies.[7][8] Arnold has further stated that the film was intended as a presentation of life, and is not political or vegan media. She has stated, "I'm not going to talk about that because I don’t want it to become about that."[3] Rather, Arnold said "our relationship with the millions of non-human lives we use is very much part of our existence. I made Cow to invite engagement with that."[9]
