I shot the Behind the Mask screening here in Oakland, at the Humanist Hall. I’m still not sure what organization I shot this for but you should all go to Uncaged Films and buy a copy of this film. It kicks ass! The screening kicked ass as well but I still would have liked to meet Shannon Keith the director face-to-face (she was sick and couldn’t make it)… Next time.

I stole this write up about the film from Indybay (Animal Lib):
“Behind the Mask” explores the history of the animal liberation movement, from its inception to present day. The controversial documentary weaves together the lives of people who face jail, devastation, and even death for their ideals. Animal liberation activists have been called the #1 domestic terror threat by the FBI, even though they claim to have never harmed a living being. The film exposes never-before-seen footage that reveals the extent to which these individuals will go to save the lives of animals. Recent FBI documents revealed that the filmmakers have been under physical and electronic surveillance for years.

I wanted to thank everyone for letting me interview them! YOU ARE ALL MY HEROS!!! And of course Goldfinger yet again for the music. The lead singer John Feldmann is in the film so that’s just one more reason why you should BUY IT!

All footage provided in this video was taken directly from the film Behind The Mask.
