Les Sang des Betes – Blood of the Beasts

This video was shared by Rene Redzepi of the restaurant NOMA in Copenhagen. This movie was filmed in Paris in the year 1949. It is a short documentary on a Parisian slaughterhouse. Anyone who has consumed meat at any point in their life should watch this video. It is very graphic but it gives incredible insight to an aspect of basic food consumption that people are so far removed from. It’s also the reality of consuming meat. It’s a shame that more animals aren’t slaughtered in this fashion. Being that I cook for a living I found the video to be incredibly interesting and educational. The level of skill displayed is this film is very impressive. If you have an opinion on this video please post. I would love to discuss it.
