Piggy (2022)

In the simmering heat of summertime, every ray of sunshine serves as a harsh spotlight on Sara - a young girl battling with her weight, and subjected to a relentless onslaught of ridicule and scorn from her peers in her isolated village. For her, summer is not a season of joy, but a period of torment. Her only solace is a cocoon of dark fantasies where justice is served in a swirl of blood and vengeance. But life takes a turn towards her fantasies when an enigmatic stranger arrives in the village. Suddenly, Sara's tormentors vanish one by one, abducted by this unknown man. She watches the chilling spectacle in horror and relief - the blood-soaked mud, the glinting knife, and the ominous van that swallows her oppressors. The stranger has seen her too, binding them in a silent pact of mutual silence. As the village is rocked by these unsettling disappearances, Sara finds herself an unwilling accomplice in a series of crimes that unsettle the once peaceful hamlet. As the civil guard delves deeper into the mystery, the villagers, fuelled by fear and suspicion, point accusing fingers and whispers of treachery float through the stale summer air. Sara's guilt gnaws at her. The questions envelop her like the suffocating heat, potent with the fear of discovery. What fate has befallen the missing girls? What if her silent pact is revealed? But beneath these layers of fear and guilt, Sara clings to a desperate desire - to fit in, to be loved. But the question remains, who can love a 'piggy'? As the tension escalifies, Sara must grapple with the reality of her actions and the heavy price of acceptance. Will she divulge the secret she shares with the unknown man, or will she let her village drown in the chilling echoes of the unanswered questions? The choice is hers, and the repercussions will ripple through their lives forever.
