Synopsis

Hanging from the ceiling the cows move slowly forward. Gradually they transform from animals into chunks of meat. The businessman eats an apple and negotiates about the price per kilo. Rob Smits and Britta Hosman bring us to a slaughterhouse in a poetical and experimental documentary where everything seems to happen in the same melodic rhythm.
