The story of three generations of men from one family who are hungry to achieve their dreams. As a young soldier during World War 2, grandfather Vendel develops a sexually obsessive appetite for his lieutenant’s wife and daughters, resulting in the birth of his illegitimate son, Kálmán. Growing into an obese man, he becomes Hungary’s leading contestant in the international speed eating competitions during the Communist regime. He marries a fellow speed eater, who gives birth to a tiny son. Lajos matures into an introspective taxidermist who finds himself looking after his father, now grown to an unmovable gargantuan size. However, as they feed on each other’s anxieties, events conspire to get them truly stuffed for posterity.
A totally warped film and film festival favorite from the director of HUKKLE
