The Baroness and the Pig is a Canadian drama film, directed by Michael Mackenzie and released in 2002.[1] Based on Mackenzie's own stage play, the film stars Patricia Clarkson as The Baroness, a Quaker woman from Philadelphia who moves to Paris with her husband, The Baron (Colm Feore) in the 1880s; however, her egalitarian ideals conflict with the elitism of Parisian society, particularly when she launches a plan to rehabilitate and bring into society a wild girl (Caroline Dhavernas) who was raised in a pig sty, leading The Duchess (Louise Marleau) to attempt to engineer The Baroness's downfall.[2]
The film premiered on September 8, 2002 at the 2002 Toronto International Film Festival.[3] It was screened under an experimental model, by which instead of a traditional film print being projected in a standard manner, the film was digitally transmitted via satellite from its producers' offices in Montreal to the theatre.[3]
