PLEASE CROSS-POST TO ALL LISTS- This is an URGENT request to boycott and/or write the Toronto Film Festival unless they remove “Casuistry: The Art of Killing a Cat” from their “REAL TO REEL” program. This is a film that, by its simple existence, glorifies that atrocities committed by three youths in 2001 when they videotaped the skinning alive of a domestic cat and called it art. Several of the police who watched the videotapes had to stop watching, some of them cried. (And cops see a LOT of horrific stuff!!) The three youths were all given slaps on the wrist (thanks to our shameful lack of animal welfare laws in Canada) and are are now out on the street today… sick minds capable of further atrocities. Before reading the following article that appears in today’s Toronto SUN, PLEASE NOTE the following contact numbers and faxes. Pls let them know how disgusted you are and, if you were planning to go, please tell them you are boycotting the festival if this film is not pulled. THANK YOU for the animals!!! Contact: Lynnette Gryseels (in the Press Office) at: lgryseels@…
