Hello! Has anyone seen the animated film The King of Pigs?
It’s a work that deals with school violence, and it was a truly shocking yet deeply lingering film. It may be difficult to watch due to the brutal depictions, but I think it’s a work that makes you confront the dark side of reality head-on.
I especially want to give it high marks for delicately portraying how childhood trauma changes a person, and the conflicts and pain they experience within it. If anyone has seen it, I’d love to hear what you remember most, and what you thought! If you haven’t seen it yet, I recommend you watch it once. (Of course, you should watch it with caution!)

I think The King of Pigs is a film that well illustrates the chain of violence. The victim becomes the perpetrator, and that perpetrator becomes a victim again… It really captures a bitter reality well.
The most impressive scene in The King of Pigs was the way the protagonists resolutely resisted. Although the outcome was tragic, their courage is memorable.
