They're Trying to Kill Us

A hungry for justice documentary.

Directed by
Runtime
108 min
Documentary

Synopsis

They’re Trying to Kill Us avoids the color-blind approach common in many documentaries promoting plant-based lifestyles and instead uses its focused perspective as a form of community care. The film presents an alternative vision of veganism tailored to communities of color, who have historically been disproportionately affected by nutritional and environmental racism.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 7

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
