If Babe stole your heart and changed your eating habits, then wait until you meet Gunda. Master director Viktor Kossakovsky’s labour of love is a beguiling ode to sow Gunda (the name means female warrior) and her adorable newborn piglets. Filmed in black and white on farms in Norway, Sweden and the UK, the documentary immerses us in farmyard life and animals that range from a one-legged chicken to a herd of cattle. The star is Gunda and her tolerance of a growing, hungry family as they develop personalities of their own. A stunning vision of life on earth and an example of cinema in its purest form. GFF21
