FIRST time showing in Chicagoland

This documentary reveals the truth of our meat industry and who suffers because of factory farming.

An inside look at the environmental, social, and animal welfare impacts of the pork industry, The Smell of Money is the true story of everyday people standing up to agricultural titans, in a battle with life or death consequences.

Informative, inspiring, and eye-opening, this is the real life story of how an underserved North Carolina community took on Smithfield, North America’s largest pork producer, in a fight for their rights to clean air, pure water, and a life free from the stench of shit.

Produced by writer and filmmaker Jamie Berger, as well as actors and filmmakers, Kate Mara, and Travon Free, this documentary makes us think a little more about the ethical and ecological issues of animal agriculture, and how we can make more conscious choices about what we eat and how we treat other living beings.

Enraging, illuminating and heartfelt. It will make you think twice before buying pork at the supermarket.

Crate Free USA

At Crate Free USA, we say no to factory farms. Every year in the U.S. almost 10 billion pigs, cows, chickens, and turkeys are slaughtered for food, and the vast majority have miserable lives in factory farms, confined in stark, industrial settings. Not only do these “farms” perpetuate inhumane animal welfare practices, they are also environmentally unsafe and harmful to public health. For the past eight years we have advocated to end the cruelest factory farming practices, and for transparency on the part of producers and retailers. Learn more about our work here. Join us in our work to protect billions of farmed animals.
Food Animal Concerns Trust (FACT)

At FACT, we believe that all food-producing animals should be raised in a humane and healthy manner and that everyone should have access to safe and humanely produced food. Since 1982, FACT has been leading the charge to make that vision a reality. We work with a national network of nearly 12,000 farmers, providing education, mentorship, and direct funding to independent farmers to encourage the use of humane farming practices. We advocate for strong corporate and government policies such as ending the overuse of antibiotics on farms and banning dangerous veterinary drugs. We also guide consumers on making healthy food choices through resources including food labels, farmers’ markets, and a national directory of local food vendors. Read more about our work here.
