During South Korea's 2010 foot-and-mouth disease outbreak, a pig named H is buried alive with other animals in a mass culling and somehow survives. After seeing how easily his life can be discarded as worthless, he becomes obsessed with one goal: becoming fully human so he will never be killed like refuse again.

Choi Jeongseok has spent his own life humiliated and abused, until he kills a cruel superior in the military and flees into the forest wishing to abandon humanity and become a beast. When the man who wants to become an animal meets the pig desperate to become a human, each is forced to reconsider what being human actually means.
