Description
A razor-sharp tragicomedy of the rise and fall of a smalltown butcher dangerously obsessed with his craft
The butcher's trade is the only thing Rensing truly understands. Often perplexed by interactions with his peers, even with his wife, he feels a bright sense of purpose wielding a cleaver and has a preternatural talent for sourcing the finest meat. When his father dies and Rensing inherits the family business, he doggedly pursues a single aim: to bring his craft to new heights of perfection.
But things are changing in his small Dutch town. A new supermarket opens, luring Rensing's customers away with unprecedentedly low prices. Growing desperate in the face of declining finances, Rensing weighs up the costs of adulterating his art— and begins to be drawn towards a more drastic solution.
