A determined Leghorn chicken is the heroine of cult director György Pálfi’s (Hukkle, Taxidermia) adroit, impressive new drama.
Shot entirely from the POV of its feathered star, Hen sees a chicken flee her wretched life on a Greek factory farm. But in the wider world she becomes witness to human tragedies unfolding around her, chiefly the predation and cruelty of the migrant crisis. Drawing parallels between people’s ill-treatment of animals and each other, Hen recalls Jerzy Skolimowski’s EO and Andrea Arnold’s Cow.
