The Baroness and the Pig is a Canadian drama film, directed by Michael Mackenzie and released in 2002. Based on Mackenzie's own stage play, the film stars Patricia Clarkson as The Baroness, a Quaker woman from Philadelphia who moves to Paris with her husband, The Baron (Colm Feore) in the 1880s; however, her egalitarian ideals conflict with the elitism of Parisian society, particularly when she launches a plan to rehabilitate and bring into society a wild girl (Caroline Dhavernas) who was raised in a pig sty, leading The Duchess (Louise Marleau) to attempt to engineer The Baroness's downfall.

The film premiered on September 8, 2002 at the 2002 Toronto International Film Festival. It was screened under an experimental model, by which instead of a traditional film print being projected in a standard manner, the film was digitally transmitted via satellite from its producers' offices in Montreal to the theatre.
