The Herd, The Art of Metaphor, and Arrested Moment
A Catskill herd of shaggy Belted Galloway cattle is the inspiration for this lovely meditation on —Belted Galloway cattle! — that, in case you’re cow-ignorant, are beautiful black or brown creatures with a broad belt of white circling their midriffs that turn your everyday cow into an aesthetic statement. Moreover, they show traces of what humans might call personality n truth, not much happens in this documentary; they graze, chew their cuds, nuzzle their calves, just doing what cows do. In short, they just are, and as such, exert a surprisingly hypnotic power over the human viewer, forcing us to think again about our fellow animals.
