Free Movie Screening March 5th!

Attention Atlanta folks! Cosmo's is putting together a screening of the movie Fowl Play on Friday, March 5th at Wonderroot.

Fowl Play is a documentary from Mercy For Animals that takes viewers on an unforgettable journey behind the closed doors of some of the country's largest egg production facilities and graphically illustrates the heartbreaking plight of laying hens condemned to lives crowded inside file-drawer sized cages.

Through touching interviews with animal rescuers, undercover investigators, veterinarians, and animal behaviorists, we hear powerful stories motivated by kindness and courage from the dedicated individuals who are fighting to save the modern day hen- perhaps the most abused and exploited animal on earth.

Connecting the dots between consumer demand for meat, dairy and eggs and the perpetuation of animal abuse, Fowl Play leaves viewers with a groundbreaking message of personal responsibility and the potential each of us holds to change the world- one meal at a time.

Please join us for a special screening of this heartfelt, sad, yet inspiring documentary! Vegan refreshments will be provided by Cosmo's and by Dough Bakery. Here is the address and some directions to the Wonderroot facility:
