Trophy

Schwarz and Clusiau also come across as glib storytellers, cutting impatiently between several different stories and presenting them in bite-size chunks, as in a TV news broadcast.

Trophy should be mandatory viewing in spite of its narrative presentation.

The film gives voice to the commercial case for breeding and hunting, which feels at odds with the emotive way these kills are positioned.

It behooves those of us with curiosity, a conscience, and a desire to find solutions to pay attention. The documentary Trophy asks us to consider one such issue, and as such is worth a little discomfort.
