自从二次世界大战之后,随着经济逐渐稳定,人类在饮食习惯方面有很大的改变。肉类的需求正以超乎常理的速度再增长中。美国玉米、大豆的产量;跨国食品工业对动物品种的控制与药物的使用,对肉类的生产有着推波助澜的力量。但随之而来的是一连串惊人的发现,污染的扩大、水资源匮乏、森林的消失、温室效应的产生…。这一部比利时公视所拍摄的纪录片,从欧洲、美洲到中国、印度,让我们看到一连串惊人的改变。地球上人口持续快速增长,预计2050年会有90亿人时,每年需要豢养的动物是360亿头,无论如何将是地球无法承受的。影片尝试带我们重新去思考这个与我们所有人都有关的问题。片名借用自猫王演唱的名曲温柔地爱我(Love me tender),入围 2011 年阿姆斯特丹影展 Green Screen Documentary 单元竞赛。
