Hen

Where she was born, she will certainly not tolerate anything anymore. So she sets out into the world — but life in the wild is no picnic. After a few wild flights, she finally finds what only her kind can dream of: love and a new home. But she doesn't know that right next to her freshly laid eggs, a smuggler's den will hatch...

Hungarian provocateur György Pálfi (Taxidermia, Final Cut) tells through the eyes of his feathered heroine a tragicomic parable about freedom, resistance against the system, and the longing for motherhood. This original dark comedy with an unexpected cinematic star earned an Honourable Mention at the Toronto Film Festival.
