    • Synopsis
    • After watching his father kill a chicken, Harry (10) refuses to eat meat. When his dad (Tony) tries
      to force him, Harry buries dinner in the back garden. The next morning there is a living, breathing chicken atop the makeshift grave. Believing it has come back to life, Harry and his mum (Tina) post a video about the miracle which captures the imagination of local vegan
      activists.

      Tony refuses to engage with his family’s newfound vegan lifestyle which only pushes them further away and into the arms of a growing church that worships the miracle chicken. Believing his family is being indoctrinated into a cult, Tony sets out to save his family by killing the holy chicken.
