Hate for sale

We live in a world in which we consume hate as much as we are consumed by it. Hate for Sale examines the alluring, seductive and soothing qualities of this devouring emotion and why we keep buying into it. Hate for Sale is an original poem by Neil Gaiman, narrated by Peter Kenny, directed and animated by Anna Eijsbouts.
