Film synopsis:
In a family made up of a grandmother, daughter and a 9-year old
granddaughter, granddaughter is forced to eat. The moral supporter of
this little girl who feels contented about her games and within her
own world, is a man behind the curtain only visible to her and no one
has any clue whether this man is real or imaginary.
While the Fried Chicken is a monstrous and aversive thing for the
little girl, it turns in to a four - meter -long avant-garde object
that is pulled over by the (same) man behind the curtain under cheers
in an isolated corner (street) populated by the homeless.
