Milk. It's in our coffee, on our cereal. We see it in processed form. It's there in almond form, or made from oats or soy. Milk celebrates the majesty of this noble liquid, and delves into the pretenders to its throne, from formula to Mylk. It looks at the transformation of what a milk-producer eats into one of the most nutrient dense foods available, and how that can be transformed again into the butter, cheese and clotted cream that we know and love today. It's an exploration of the science, history and politics of what makes mammals different from every other life form on earth.

Imagine one day you receive a letter in the mail that informs you that a large energy company is planning to build a massive pipeline through your property.

Spostarsi con le proprie gambe, senza consumare altro che la propria energia. Assaporare un passo più lento, accorgersi degli alberi, dei negozi, delle persone che incontriamo lungo il tragitto. Arrivare al lavoro svegli e pronti ad affrontare la giornata.
