The film tells a story about an Ethiopian boy must move out new place to live with relatives who he does not like. He brings a special friend- a sheep. One day, they request him to sacrifice his sheep for religious feast but he decides to go away from their house.
A young Ethiopian boy and his rust-colored ewe are the protagonists of Lamb, the beautifully crafted if rather familiar first feature from Yared Zeleke.
Far removed from the prettified, exotic look of a National Geographic trip to deep Africa, Zeleke offers a full scale, detailed portrait of the Ethiopian village at a time when the entire country was starving.
I's a delicately satisfying drama with coming-of-age elements, deeply sympathetic to its characters and very much attuned to the landscape around them.
