For this theatrical documentary, Justin Laramée spoke to experts, including milk producers and processors, in addition to offering a synopsis of 8000 years of milk history! Between the exhilarating humour and rigorous investigation, the author also explores the industrialization of farms, the responsibilities of consumers, and animal and environmental welfare. A complex, fascinating world, offered up in an accessible and deeply human text.
