Reviews

“With a correspondingly large fanfare, cage management was banned in Germany a few years ago, the most brutal forms immediately, the mildest will be phased out in the next few years, but already today you can hardly find eggs with the dreaded starting number 3 on the shelf. And now? It's time to take stock. Jens Niehuss and Simone Bogner do this in concentric, outwardly larger circles. […] This first local and finally global view has become part of the standard repertoire of agricultural documentation and can be admired in virtually the same construction in current articles on the dairy industry and meat production - partly with the same effects on the same ecosystems in South America and economic systems in West Africa. "

- DJ Frederiksson, Frankfurter Rundschau :

"A pleasantly non-polemical documentary that one would also like to recommend to teachers and school classes."
