A riveting story of transformation and healing, PEACEABLE KINGDOM: THE JOURNEY HOME
explores the awakening conscience of several people who grew up in traditional farming culture
and who have now come to question the basic assumptions of their way of life.
Presented through a woven tapestry of memories, music, and breathtaking accounts of life-
altering moments, the film provides insight into the farmers' sometimes amazing connections with
the animals under their care, while also making clear the complex web of social, psychological and
economic forces that have led them to their present dilemma.
Interwoven with the farmers' stories is the dramatic animal rescue work of a newly-trained
humane police officer whose sense of justice puts her at odds with the law she is charged to
uphold. With strikingly honest interviews and rare footage demonstrating the emotional lives and
intense family bonds of animals most often viewed as living commodities, this groundbreaking
documentary shatters stereotypical notions of farmers, farm life, and perhaps most surprisingly,
farm animals themselves.
