"MAXIMUM TOLERATED DOSE", "Woof", and "Once There Were Polar Bears"
FEATURE: "MAXIMUM TOLERATED DOSE" Director: Karel Orzechoswki
"Maximum Tolerated Dose" is the first feature-length documentary by Karol Orzechowski / Decipher Films. Equal parts found-footage mash-up, verité investigation, and artful meditation, the film charts the lives of both humans and non-humans who have experienced animal testing first-hand, with hauntingly honest testimony of scientists and lab technicians whose ethics demanded they choose a different path, as well as the simultaneously heartwarming and heartbreaking stories of animals who have seen both sides of the cage.
MTD aims to re-ignite the debate about animal testing by bringing these rarely-heard perspectives to the fore. ----------------------------------------------------------
