Pighead

Two friends work together to follow their passion of filmmaking, but as their journey progresses, their friendship falls apart into a sloppy mess.

A 19-year-old vagabond, passing through one of many rural slums on his way to nowhere, decides to steal from a service station in order to make ends meet. However, we discover his motivation rests on something much more personal.

Eva Jensen is a female carpenter form Hamburg who wants to make a new start on the Baltic Sea coast in eastern Germany. She tries to buy a workshop with a view of the sea offered for sale by Heide, who rents out beach chairs. Unfortunately, Heide’s ex-husband vetoes the sale. In trying to understand his reasons, Eva comes across a painful family secret from the days of the GDR. And in other respects too, the newcomer from the West faces prejudice in the village, although her skills are urgently needed. Fish-seller Christian is also interested in the workshop, which Eva just sees as fair competition. Then they discover a common passion, kite-surfing, and unexpectedly grow closer.

Pigheaded is a documentary that tells the provocative life story of underground cartoonist and subversive satirist Skip Williamson.
