AbstractHistoryArchive Description
A short, animated version of the anonymous nursery rhyme 'The Old Woman Who Bought a Little Pig', a cumulative tale in which a woman seeks to get her recalcitrant pig home from market by asking a dog to bite the pig, a stick to beat the dog, a fire to burn the stick, and so on. Little information is available on this film, which is one of Marek's more obscure productions.
