Liberty is a dark animal rights film written and directed by Belgian filmmaker Phil De Witte. The film depicts a young Animal Park guide named Matt (Nicholas Michael McGovern) kidnapping a group of people to show them what it feels like to be an animal in captivity. This film makes its point clearly in the first 10 minutes but decides it must hammer it home, making things feel overly preachy. There is also no topic of discussion here, just one perspective. Many people would agree that animals do not deserve to be in captivity, but this film seems to argue that human nature is blatantly evil. Animals' lives are basically above those of humans. There are glimpses of intrigue throughout, like when the imprisoned characters begin to let their animal instincts run rampant or when we briefly look into Matt's family life. However, it seems as though the sole objective of Liberty is to convince the audience of something rather than to present a captivating story.
