Ephraim uses his cooking skills to carve out a place among his cousins, but when his uncle decides that his beloved sheep must be sacrificed for the next religious feast, he will do anything to save the animal and return home. Ethiopia’s entry for Best Foreign Language Film Academy Award, Lamb was the first Ethiopian film to screen at the Cannes Film Festival.
