However, he is soon drawn into amorous and political intrigues. At the same time, he is pushed to defend a pig, owned by the mysterious gypsy Samira. The pig has been arrested for the murder of a young boy. Comments: Great and unusual movie. This is one of my favourite films - then again I do also love Congo, Jack and Joe Versus The Volcano, Bitter Moon and Extreme Measures. I think all these films are very special - unfortunately, most other people and critics tend to think they are crap! And I'm not trying to be quirky, I genuinely like them very much. ..Movie Stills ..Movie Stills Available to buy:  The Advocate (DVD)  The Advocate (VHS)
