SYNOPSIS

A wandering little pig befriends a naïve little boy much to the chagrin of his Jewish orthodox family…

Meet happy-go-lucky Issac: seven years old, mop-topped, as he trots through life from behind his bottle-top spectacles. Undeterred by the ridicule of other children, Issac's lives within his imagination until he unexpectedly crosses paths with a little pig where an unconditional friendship develops, that soon upsets life in the village, much to the chagrin of his Orthodox Jewish family. As the pair are forced to separate Isaac’s innocence, faith and his friendship with the little pig are tested beyond breaking point, leaving us wondering if Issac's childhood innocence has been lost forever.
