Kura, directed by György Pálfi (2025)

The main character of the new film by Hungarian director György Pálfi is the eponymous hen. A seemingly defenseless animal escapes from an industrial poultry farm in search of a safe place to raise its chicks. She ends up in a Greek seaside village, where she is captured by the owner of a run-down restaurant and forcibly “enters” the human world. She is an attentive observer of a reality completely alien to her. He also becomes a silent witness to human dramas related to the migration crisis, family conflicts or greed.
