A farmer, a cheesemaker, a philosopher and a scientist take us on a guided tour through a cow.
Told in five acts, this programme weaves together the voices of our four guides - artist-philosopher Samar Nasrullah Khan, cheesemaker Peter Dixon, farmer Nikki Yoxall and Professor of Animal Science and Microbiology Sharon Huws.
They take us on a journey from deep in the soil, through a plant, into a cow’s mouth, through her four stomach compartments – home to vast civilisations of bacteria, protozoa and fungi – and, of course, out the other end.
Part documentary, part creative interpretation, the programme uses field recordings to immerse us in the multi-species communities we encounter along the way.
