Event Description

A hen’s-eye view of the world reveals the cut-throat nature of existence and puts human flaws into relief in this tragicomic tale from György Pálfi (Hukkle).

An animal protagonist – as with Jerzy Skolimowski’s donkey in EO (shown at Borderlines in 2023) – can take you places where people cannot penetrate. This is a coming-of-age story – but of a chicken. Surviving battery farming, a fox, traffic, the dangers of a big city, a dog and being made into soup, the hen ends up taking refuge in a crumbling Greek seaside restaurant where a human tragedy is unfolding. A filmmaking tour-de-force with real animals in real locations and a brilliant score, this is something different.
