The Butcher

An outstanding new film by one of France's leading directors.

Todor is a young butcher working in the meat section of a large supermarket. Marika is a young cashier at the same supermarket. She is married to a young house painter, Stamen. The butcher goes on a quest to conquer the fragile heart of the cashier. He steals bones and secretly sends them to her for her dog. Stamen finds out about the butcher and removes him from their lives. But the butcher returns - just when he is most needed... when the cashier’s heart has given up.
