    Real, neorealism: a wry subdued picture of rural Georgia

    A Pig by Giga Kiklivadze is an amiable Georgian feature shot on a shoestring budget that riffs on the theme of the "stupid" crook. Here the protagonists are a couple of slightly goofy, foul mouthed losers (they steal railway ties at night) who "accidentally" kidnap hapless Bachana, after he wanders into their backyard by mistake. To raise the ransom money of 300 GEL ($100) Bachana's dad will have to sell a pig at the local market while his son waits chained to a large cooking pot in ramshackle kitchen somewhere in backwoods Georgia. It's a chilling premise that has all the potential for a grim ending, but the audience soon realizes our "dumb and dumber" perps aren't really bad guys and they soon begin laughing at their inane curses and mannerisms. The director's wry, deadpan style brings out the absurdity of the situation. The film won the Human Rights prize at the Tbilisi International Festival - probably because it shows how down-at-the-heels much of Georgia still is.

    I liked how realistic it was

    Pig as i see is a slow burn, it has 3 characters and i think a nice story. As i saw it, it was mostly about how some people take advantage of other's weaknesses, so main thing that i would look at from that kind of movie dialogue and acting, plus obviously directing, i thought were fantastingly done, very specific georgian type of talking and stuff, overall i had a good time watching it

    Review

    A true cinematic masterpiece, this film is a breathtaking journey into the depths of human emotion. Every frame is meticulously crafted, showcasing the director's visionary artistry. The performances are nothing short of extraordinary, with each actor delivering a nuanced portrayal that lingers long after the credits roll. The cinematography is stunning, with every shot feeling like a work of art. The soundtrack perfectly complements the film's emotional highs and lows, making this a must-see for any lover of cinema. A rare gem that transcends storytelling. If i had to describe perfectness in any word i would say pig.
