At Ellen’s Age
Directed by Pia Marais5.9
Ellen, a flight attendant by profession, travels all over the world for her job. Over time, however, she realizes that she has no time for her interests and personal life, and she even begins to suffer panic attacks at the thought of living like this for years to come. Before her next flight, she runs away from the plane, knowing that with this step she is leaving her current life behind. Jobless, she wanders through cities, meets people, and searches for a new life and a new home. During these travels, she meets a group of younger animal liberation activists who immediately impress her with their solidarity, empathy, and determination to dismantle the industry that profits from the abuse of the innocent.
