Synopsis :
A butcher and a butchery, both look perfectly normal. The delivery arrives in the morning, the butcher prepares the meat as it should be. Not many clients though. It’s more like his fantasy world, his asylum, here he can live out his sexual fantasies, here he can play out his dark side and forget about the miserable life he has. There is Roxy, the young girl in the butchery. She’s videoing everything as part of her search for answers, her limits, her life. And the butcher gets into her head, she gets into his. There is the inspector. A man with a miserable life at a point where he doesn’t want to prove or improve anything anymore. Not much different than the butcher. A bit bigger, but they’re sharing the same face. Then the inspector, investigating the mysterious death of the butcher after it happened or maybe while it happens, gets involved with Roxy…
