Vegucated premieres at the Toronto Independent Film Festival on Saturday, September 10 at 9:30 p.m. at the 700-plus seat Toronto Underground Cinema theatre.
Part sociological experiment and part adventure comedy, Vegucated is a guerrilla-style documentary that follows three meat- and cheese-loving New Yorkers who agree to adopt a vegan diet for six weeks. Lured by tales of weight lost and health regained, they begin to uncover the hidden sides of animal agriculture that make them wonder whether solutions offered in films like Food, Inc. go far enough. Before long, they find themselves risking everything to expose an industry they supported just weeks before, and carrying through on their convictions when times get tough.
