Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.A short film shot entirely from a pig’s point of view has been released to mark the start of the Chinese Year of the Pig.
“M6nths” has no voiceover in an effort to show the animal “as an individual, capable of feeling pain and joy, which when raised intensively is seen merely as a product”, the directors say.
It received a Panda award (known as a “Green Oscar”).
Dutch filmmaker Eline Helena Schellekens said: “'M6nths’ shows life through the eyes of a piglet growing up on an industrial farm without ever experiencing the outside world.”
