Join us for the world premiere screening of our latest documentary 🐷 Trigger warning: sexual assault and r*pe
https://events.humanitix.com/world-premiere-what-happened-to-olivia
In late 2023 and early 2024, a team of covert investigators from the animal protection organisation Farm Transparency Project, set out on a mission to install concealed cameras inside the Victorian piggery, Midland Bacon. Unbeknownst to them, what they would uncover would go far beyond the usual horrors hiding behind the closed doors of factory farms in Australia.
In a new documentary from the producers of Lucent and Dominion, animal activist Sophie Wilcher will take viewers through the investigation that revealed the sexual abuse and r*pe of a mother pig - later named Olivia but first known by the number on her ear tag 8416 - and the global movement for justice that developed in its aftermath.
With testimony from investigators involved, behind the scenes footage and interviews with experts in law and politics, this documentary will not only tell the story of what happened to Olivia, it will explore why and how such a horrific act could have ever taken place, and what must change to ensure it never does again.
