Rating: 4.0/5 (1 vote cast)

This feature-length documentary that follows three meat- and cheese-loving New Yorkers who agree to adopt a vegan diet for six weeks. There’s Brian, the bacon-loving bachelor who eats out all the time; Ellen, the single mom who prefers comedy to cooking; and Tesla, the college student who avoids vegetables and bans beans. They have no idea that so much more than steak is at stake and that the fate of the world may fall on their plates.
Why It's FilmBuff
So many food documentaries look to show the horrors of the food industry, but Vegucated goes beyond the horrors of mass farming and shows the human element in becoming a vegan. Presenting the film as a challenge to three everyday meat eaters from every walk of life, Marisa Miller Wolfson actually creates accessibility in a subject that can divide the masses. This film takes a unique look at what it is to be a vegan and examines the subject from the point of life transformations. By avoiding controversy, Miller Wolfson makes her argument more appealing to the skeptics.
