Summary |
Eubanks (Danny Glover), an old-school pig farmer from Georgia on the brink of losing his family farm, sets off on a road trip with his estranged daughter, Eunice (Maya Rudolph) and Howard, his beloved and very large pig. As they make their way across the border to Mexico to find 'Howie' a new home, Eubanks’ drinking and deteriorating health begin to take a toll, derailing their plans. Driven by strong convictions and stubbornness in his old ways, Eubanks attempts to make peace through his devotion to Howie and desire to mend his broken relationships. Director Diego Luna tackles the old and new in an age of global markets, factory farming, and disposable relationships. Luna’s poetic postcard road film to Mexico, guided by a soundtrack evoking the South and old rock ‘n’ roll, is lyrically photographed following the gorgeously overgrown, winding roads of Central America. Sundance Film Festival World Premiere. Winner of the Best Narrative Feature at the Dallas International Film Festival |
