Synopsis
Long ago, many years before Homer, on an imaginary island in the Aegean Sea, there lived a strange creature named Minor.  A dumb beast, half-man, half-pig, Minor lives a quiet and happy life in his sty with his affectionate sow.  One day, whilst exploring the forest, he meets the god Pan, who initiates him in the ways of Paganism.   Whilst perching on an olive branch to spy on Clytia, the daughter of the Patriarch, Minor falls and kills himself.  But Minor is not dead.  He comes back to life and has miraculously acquired the ability to speak.  The villagers are amazed by Minor’s newfound eloquence and make him their king.  This is where the troubles really begin...
