The life and struggles of controversial animal rights pioneer and maverick theologian Andrew Linzey are explored by his filmmaker son. An intimate portrait of an outspoken and progressive thinker. The Animal Thing charts the struggles of Andrew Linzey, who is a cantankerous and unwilling subject for his son Adam. This is the story of a man who spoke out as a progressive voice in the Anglican Church, a polarizing force at the University of Oxford, and as a tireless campaigner for animal rights, on a range of issues from fox hunting and seal clubbing, to vivisection. Today, Andrew considers himself a failure. But despite the immense price he has paid for confronting the cruelty of animal exploitation, Andrew has also had an enormous and, until now, largely unheralded impact on the modern animal movement.
