When Hector Castillo is bullied by two neighbouring Russian boys, his father Juan insists on taking swift revenge. Juan's temper and his deeply felt prejudice against "the communistas" soon lead to a full-scale family feud. Hector wants no part of this feud, and secretly does everything he can to make peace between the two families. But Hector must also make peace with his father...
'The Lion and the Lamb' is a powerful, unlifting story. Told with humour and sympathy, it challenges stereotypes and transcends the migrant experience to become a fable of our time.
