PIGGY to be released in the UK 06/01/2023

A critical hit at the Sundance Film Festival – Carlota Pereda’s PIGGY is a bold and strikingly ominous adaptation of Pereda’s award-winning short film of the same name. It is the story of Sara, an isolated and misunderstood teenager at the mercy of a particularly vicious group of bullies. Persecuted because of her size, and accustomed to her space in the margins of society, she faces a grueling dilemma when one of the girls who bullies her is kidnapped by a violent stranger. The film stars an exceptional Laura Galán alongside Richard Holmes, Carmen Machi, Irene Ferreiro and Camille Aguilar.

This one looks deeply unsettling but that which unsettles us is also what compels us. So if you want to see this picture you need only wait till the 6th of January 2023.
