Rustling

Rustling

The story of a lamb and a boy faced with the challenge of becoming a man.

2022 · 10 min · ★ 6.0 · Drama

In a family of sheep rustlers, a 15-year-old must go up against his domineering father to help his younger brother keep the lamb left orphaned by their latest slaughter. Rustling touchingly presents an alternative masculinity instilled not with machismo, but with empathy.
