Private detective Brenner mounts an investigation in the countryside, where a famous „Backhendlstation“, a country inn, consumes thousands of chickens every week, leaving only bones to be ground down – ironically enough – for chicken feed. Brenner finds himself caught up in this cannibalistic cycle of eating and being eaten.
Based on the novel by von Wolf Haas.
