"Animal Farm" (1981) is a Danish short documentary directed by Bodil Joensen, a filmmaker and controversial figure known for her involvement with bestiality pornography and later work documenting related subcultures and personal consequences. This film examines the intersections of sexual exploitation, marginalized lives, and social taboos. Due to the subject matter and Joensen’s own biography, the film is historically and ethically fraught; approaches to it should prioritize critical context, consent and legality, and survivor-centered perspectives.
The footage was not originally filmed as a single movie. Instead, it was a compilation of clips from various legally produced Danish short films from the 1960s and early 1970s, many of which were produced by the Color Climax Corporation Production Animal Farm Video Bodil Joensen 1981
