Castratus, the Boar

Prague Short Film Festival Presents 2015 / Kasträts Kuilis / Latvia 2014

Valter is a loner with a secret. It prevents him from fitting in with the community, but at least he sings in the church choir in addition to taking care of pigs. What happens when he attempts to approach a local girl named Aija? This will certainly be no traditional romance. Special Jury Mention at the 2015 Prague Short Film Festival.
