Out in the Oregon wilderness, the truffle-foraging hermit Rob lives with his beloved pig, Pig. But, one day, Pig is stolen, and Rob must travel through the networks of Portland’s underground restaurant scene to get her back. It’s a premise that promises a revenge thriller, but the world of Pig and Nicolas Cage’s performance as the mysterious Rob deliver something much stranger and much more absorbing.“It’s Cage’s most thoughtful and restrained performance in a long time, exhibiting a gentleness we don’t often get to see…. Sarnoski’s reverence for the natural world and appreciation of a meal made with love and care evokes Kelly Reichardt’s First Cow, while Alexis Grapsas and Philip Klein’s sublime score adds a melancholy, almost austere quality to the soundscape.” — Hannah Strong, Little White Lies
