When Pigs Have Wings

Sylvain Estibal with Sasson GabaïMyriam Tekaïa

2011 Drama France, Belgium, Germany 99 minutes

After a storm at sea, Jafaar, a poor Palestinian fisherman, reels in a pot-bellied pig along with his usual catch. He attempts to sell the "impure" beast, but trying to profit from a pig in Gaza isn't the easiest task in the world, especially when you are confronted with highly motivated fundamentalists. Jafaar and the pig ultimately become entangled in an extraordinary chain of events and a dubious line of work, involving the nearby Jewish community.
