Deeply immersive, "The Last Pig", is a lyrical meditation that follows a seminal year in the life of a farmer in his journey beyond the slaughterhouse. Through sparse intimate musings and soul-bearing narrative, "The Last Pig" is poetic snapshot and contemplation on what it means to be a sentient creature with the power to kill. www.thelastpig.com
