Film Information

Academy Award winner Andrea Arnold returns with an intimate portrait of one dairy cow’s life. The film highlights the beauty and challenges cows face, and their great service to us all. This film is an endeavor to consider cows. To move us closer to them. To see both their beauty and the challenge of their lives. Not in a romantic way but in a real way. It’s a film about one dairy cow’s reality and acknowledging her great service to us.

Reviews

“Cow doesn’t interrogate the motives behind that process – leave that to “Fast Food Nation” and its ilk  – but it does a fine job of generating empathy from one scene to the next and using that power to craft a hypnotic spell rife with significance.”

Eric Kohn
indieWire

“A filmmaker infectiously attuned to movement, Arnold finds a horrible, hypnotic rhythm in these gruelingly looped procedures, though she doesn’t shoot them with any surplus beauty.”

Guy Lodge
Variety

“Alongside her observant cinematographer Magda Kowalczyk, Arnold applies that same alert and non-didactic spirit to “ Cow ” as she follows Luma, a dairy cow who provides a great service to humankind by selflessly giving her milk away.”
