“Slaughter”
When seen from a different perspective, the ordinary order of things reveal their true meaning. The slaughter of a pig becomes paradoxically a hymn to life, where the primal cause is shown by a journey through its own effects.

In late 19th-century England, Jude aspires to be an academic, but is hobbled by his blue-collar background. Instead, he works as a stonemason and is trapped in an unloving marriage to a farmer's daughter named Arabella. But when his wife leaves him, Jude sees an opportunity to improve himself. He moves to the city and begins an affair with his married cousin, Sue, courting tragedy every step of the way.
