Vegetarian Star

Bold Native

A Bold Native premiere will be hosted tonight by vegan businessman Russell Simmons. The fictional film depicts the story of an Animal Liberation Front member wanted by authorities and his corporate employee father who’s trying to reach his son before officers do.

Girlie Girl Army interviewed a few key figures from the film, including Denis Henry Hennelly, writer and director; Casey Suchan, producer and editor; and Joaquin Pastor who plays the main character. There is irony in the fact that Suchan used to work for McDonald’s and took home some of his wages in “Big Macs” before rethinking the ethics of his food choices.

Russell Simmons will host the New York City premiere of Bold Native, a fiction film about the animal rights group Animal Liberation Front.

The combination of film screening and press event is Monday July 26 at 6 p.m. at Anthology Film Archives, 32 Second Avenue (at 2nd Street), in New York City. The film begins at 7 p.m and doors will be open to the press at 6 p.m.

Bold Native tells the fictional story of an ALF member wanted by the government for domestic terrorism and his CEO father trying to find him before law enforcement does. Other story lines in the movie include an activist campaigning for better treatment of farm animals.

“We need more creative, fun, impassioned and entertaining movies like Bold Native to drive the important message of animal rights to the masses,” Simmons, who will be available for interviews and photos during the screening at 6:15 p.m., said.

The trailer for Bold Native can be viewed below.
