2015 Canadian film

The Voice (Italian: La Voce) is a Canadian short drama film, directed by David Uloth and released in 2015.[1] Inspired by the opera Lucia di Lammermoor and conceived as a film whose story would be carried by sound design rather than dialogue, the film stars Miro Lacasse as Edgar, an opera-loving employee at a pig slaughterhouse; one day, his plan to ask his girlfriend to marry him is derailed by the discovery that she is having an affair with his boss, leaving him in such a state of shock that he loses his voice and can communicate only by grunting and squealing like a pig.[1]
