This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Pig Me is a Danish traditionally animated short film directed by a group of young animators (Marie-Louise H. Jensen, Israel Hernandez, Mette Rank Tange, Rebecca Sørensen, Ditte Gade), that tells the adventures of a piglet that escapes from an abattoir. You'll fall in love with the piglet from the beginning.Available for viewing at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ybop2CgBSfcThis is one of the most thought-provoking short films I have seem lately, and compulsory viewing if you are interested in ethical dilemmas. It poses many interesting questions to the viewer in a fun way, and it makes its point so strongly that is difficult to argue it. Some of the questions that came to my mind after viewing the film are: Why do we eat meat if we have other sources of protein in the vegetable world? If the answer is yes, which one do we choose, especially having almost every animal at our disposal? Does cuteness and ugliness play a role in the food we eat or the food you eat? Would you rather eat a cute edible exotic animal or an ugly non-exotic one? Is our relationship with our pets a denial of our own animal instincts? Why don't we eat our pets? If we reared an animal as a pet and you were starving, would you eat it? Why people get crossed about Koreans eating an edible of dogs and not us eating lambs or sucking piglets?The film is very funny and well made, and will delight and repulse you, both at once. One thing is for short, it won't leave you indifferent.
