Martyn Pig
Fifteen year old Martyn Pig suffers with an unfortunate name and the burden of caring for his alcoholic and abusive father after his mother abandons them. When his drunken father lunges at him, Martyn instinctively pushes him away, unintentionally causing his father to fatally hit his head on the fireplace. Unwilling to face questions by the police and afraid of being sent to live with his critical and opinionated Aunty Jean, Martyn decides to dispose of the body with his friend's help.
