When it comes to animation, "Letter to a Pig" is the perfect fit for the short film category. The animation style, bursting with creativity, would probably be far too exhausting for a feature film, but it works well for under 20 minutes. The plot is also thought-provoking; at its core, it is about a Holocaust survivor who reads a letter to a pig who saved his life to a group of teenagers in a classroom. Aside from the ending, this premise is executed fairly well. I wouldn't be surprised if "Letter to a Pig" were nominated for an Oscar.
