Rated 96% on Rotten Tomatoes

The fates of an unlucky pig farmer, a feisty homeowner defending her property, a love-struck busboy, a disenchanted rich girl, and an American expat pursuing the Chinese Dream converge and collide as thousands of dead pigs are found floating down the Huangpu River, towards a modernizing Shanghai in Cathy Yan’s masterful feature debut.

“DEAD PIGS’ intermingling of grit and polish is hugely satisfying: a potent combination of pearls and swine.” – Robbie Collin, Daily Telegraph

“DEAD PIGS delivers a story that is thought-provoking, decadently stylish, sprightly poignant, and joltingly funny.” – Kristy Puchko, Pajiba

“Thoroughly enjoyable, DEAD PIGS arises as the origin chapter of a great storyteller and an opportune mosaic of people in a rapidly transforming superpower.” – Carlos Aguilar, Los Angeles Times

Language: English and Chinese (Mandarin/Shanghainese) (English subtitles)

Length: 2 hr.
