The verdict

There are not yet enough audience votes to give this a reliable score. It is not currently playing in Hong Kong cinemas. Category I · 75 minutes.

What it is about

To secure a better future, Mrs Mc sends her son McDull (who is a piglet attending kindergarten) to many different classes and she has also bought her grave on mortgage. Inspired by J K Rowling, Mrs Mc tries her hand at writing. At bedtime, she tells McDull the story she wrote although McDull keeps asking her to read him Harry Potter instead. The story she wrote is actually the story of McDull's father, McBing, Prince de la Bun

What to expect

Mrs Mc, a single mother pig, tries to write a bedtime story for her son McDull, who would rather hear Harry Potter. What she ends up telling him is the story of his absent father, McBing, the Prince de la Bun. The 75-minute runtime keeps things compact, and the Category I certificate means even the youngest viewers can tag along. Voiced by Andy Lau, Sandra Ng, Jan Lam, Chet Lam, Anthony Wong, and May Che, the movie screens in Cantonese with English and Chinese subtitles. It plays as part of anifest 2026, so sessions are limited—check listings before you go.
