“A cozy, decent kitchen of your dreams, a perfect breakfast, and a war of chickens.”Yifei and Ming lead a meticulously ordered life in their Qingdao beachfront apartment, watching their neighbour’s chickens engage in a brutal, feathery feud from behind a spotless window. To Ming, a school teacher, the violence is background noise to be ignored; to Yifei, a bank clerk, this war is a market to be exploited, as free-range eggs begin to arrive at their doorstep.As the couple argue and scheme over this unexpected windfall, the boundary between outside and inside begins to collapse. Chickens invade their home, littering the living room with droppings.Chicken Dropping is a biting absurdist comedy about those who treat tragedy as opportunity, until the blood and filth of what they’ve monetised crash through their own kitchen window.When the world turns into a battlefield, how long can you keep your own kitchen clean?
