🎬 The Empathy Project (2026, 30 min) is a mid-length documentary directed by award-winning director Tristan Copley-Smith. It aims to uplift and celebrate public concern for animals and to normalise advocacy for animals by platforming voices from the movement. Interviewees include Michelin-starred chef Alexis Gauthier, former SHAC activist Tom Harris, Molly Vasanthakumar from Stockfree Farming and many more.

🎬 Forever Home (2026, 56 min) follows a young couple’s dream to provide the best possible life for rescued farm animals by rethinking the concept of 'home.' At their animal sanctuary in North Carolina, they base their designs on the needs of the individual animals, replacing conventional barns with customized homes. Paul, an architect, calls it 'animal centered design'. With empathy and boundless imagination, they’re bringing architectural design to the world of animal care and providing a blueprint for a compassionate, sustainable future.
