I watched this movie on okto film art Sunday. It's a very thought provoking and interesting story based on a true one. It's about how a teacher gave a lesson about life to his students by asking them to raise a pig to eat it. Yes raise like a farmer or very much a pet and then eat it. Just by thinking about the possible problems he would face make this movie a very interesting one.
The students were happily building a house for the pig, then they started naming it simply P-chan because the teacher thought it wasn't such a good idea. They became very attached and drawn to the pig as they play with it, clean its sly and took care of it like a dear pet. Once in a while, one a girl will question if the class was really gonna eat it and that spark off everything...
some questions kids raised as the situation made them think about what is eating, what it means to kill their dear pet. Obviously, pork meat is not supposed to come from their P-chan. Some argue about the purpose of pig's existence, human's existence and eating with the objective of raising her in the first place...Who has the right to determine the length of the pig's life? there were 101 controversial questions being debated by a class of grade 6 students...
