One is enough – just one little lamb – and Kalyan Singh will be satisfied. It’s his greatest desire that his beloved goat Laila should be a mother. But, as the title of the film already suggests, this goat does not feel like intercourse. Her owner drags her to all kinds of miracle doctors, but he still doesn’t have any success. Then, on that one day when the village is expecting a very important guest, Laila turns out to be on heat. Singh has to find a partner for her today of all days, despite all the police officers and traffic cops in the way. The journey turns into a surrealist tragedy in which Murali Nair beautiful portrays Singh’s blinding obsession for his goat. Nair, an experienced chronicler of Indian countryside life, has not only made an unusual love story with Virgin Goat – about the love between a man and his goat – but also a parable about the intransigence of the Indian middle classes and people’s inability to adapt to a changing world.
