The Grand Illusion

Academy Award winner Andrea Arnold (Wuthering Heights, American Honey) returns with an intimate portrait of one dairy cow’s life.

“This film is an endeavour to consider cows. To move us closer to them. To see both their beauty and the challenge of their lives. Not in a romantic way but in a real way. It’s a film about one dairy cow’s reality and acknowledging her great service to us. When I look at Luma, our cow, I see the whole world in her.” Andrea Arnold
