Eubanks (Danny Glover), an old-school pig farmer from Georgia on the brink of losing his family farm, sets off on a road trip with Howard, his beloved and very large pig. As they make their way across the border to Mexico to find "Howie" a new home, Eubanks' drinking and deteriorating health begin to take a toll, derailing their plans. His estranged daughter, Eunice (Maya Rudolph), is forced to join them on their adventure. Driven by strong convictions and stubbornness in his old ways, Eubanks attempts to make peace through his devotion to Howie and desire to mend his broken relationships. (Sundance Film Festival)

This is a pretty simple story about an old man who doesn't have much to fall back on anymore, so he fixates on his pig. Diego Luna as a director shows that he is capable of making interesting, intimate stories, but above all, it is Danny Glover and Maya Rudolph who let you experience this slightly absurd story.
