In many parts of the world the pig is considered harmful and impure. But the pig is the most-eaten animal in the world. Will Dorus the star of this fascinating film, be an exception? Dorus is a pig living in the back yard of a Dutch butcher. During their walks together Dorus becomes a local celebrity. Some customers try to discourage the butcher from killing Dorus. Others look forward to tasting its rich meat. As Dorus matures and reaches the point of slaughter, the butcher faces a difficult choice. Does his love for the pig run deeper than his love of pork? This film explores this controversial animal and challenges our cultural assumptions and tastes.
