In the wild, a pig can easily live up to ten years. For pigs in the meat industry, the lifespan is about six months. Their (short) life, seen through the eyes of a piglet growing up in the meat industry.
Short film about an animal in captivity longing for the outside. An animal that, like us, dreams, is intelligent, curious, social and sensitive, and in whom we can clearly recognise a soul. The piglet in this movie invites us to see the world through his eyes, which will forever change our view on pigs.
