Reviews

“Cow doesn’t interrogate the motives behind that process – leave that to “Fast Food Nation” and its ilk – but it does a fine job of generating empathy from one scene to the next and using that power to craft a hypnotic spell rife with significance.”

Eric Kohn

indieWire

“A filmmaker infectiously attuned to movement, Arnold finds a horrible, hypnotic rhythm in these gruelingly looped procedures, though she doesn’t shoot them with any surplus beauty.”

Guy Lodge

Variety

“Alongside her observant cinematographer Magda Kowalczyk, Arnold applies that same alert and non-didactic spirit to “ Cow ” as she follows Luma, a dairy cow who provides a great service to humankind by selflessly giving her milk away.”
