This 2018 documentary, produced by Academy Award winner James Cameron and directed by Academy Award winner Louis Psihoyos, is about the benefits of plant-based eating for athletes. It covers multiple success stories of athletes who eat a plant-based diet, references scientific studies, and touches on arguments for plant-based diets that extend to non-athletes.
