The film is about two boys living in a small village in 2001 during a temporary ceasefire in the Nepalese civil war. All the hens in the village are confiscated for a celebration party for the king’s visit. Prakash cannot let go of the white hen his sister left him before leaving to become a rebel, but it is sold anyway. Two worlds are seemingly indifferently interspersed as the boys embark on a journey to find the hen: government troops and communist rebels, a boy of lower class and the grandson of the village chief, the world of adults and that of children, beautiful landscape and gruesome war, a white hen and a black hen. In reality, the two worlds are cold, but the film shows that friendship and providence can overcome it. (YOO Sun-hee)
