Cow

Cow (2022) is Andrea Arnold's documentary, and you can watch it online on iFILM. The camera stays glued to a dairy cow named Luma and her calf, trailing them through milking, birth, feeding and the rare stretch of open pasture.

There's no voiceover and no plot in the usual sense. Arnold shoots in tight close-ups, down at the animal's eye level, turning ordinary farm routine into something quietly gripping. Bit by bit the point of all that repetition surfaces — a cow's place in the human food chain, made plain without a single line of commentary.

Ninety-three minutes of slow but unblinking cinema, with the director of Fish Tank and American Honey moving her close attention from people to a single animal. This isn't entertainment so much as an experience, meant for viewers willing to sit and really look. Stream Cow (2022) online on iFILM.
