The film is about the butcher, but also about the young butcher’s girl. Only on the outside is it a normal butcher’s shop and a normal butcher. It soon becomes clear that the butcher lives for his dark and sexual fantasies. And also the butcher’s girl, Roxy, is not entirely innocent. In a fanatical self study, she records everything on video. The butcher penetrates into her imagination, but she in turn penetrates into his head. More than a story, the film is a journey in the imagination. The butcher is played by the famous theatre actor Titus Muizelaar. He takes total possession of the character of the perverted butcher. Roxy is played by Nellie Benner, who proved in Crepuscule, the previous film by the makers, that she also dares reveal all. The film was made on a small budget and the other roles are played by students at Hugo Metsers’ Fame Academy.
