Eatself

Poland2018animated14'Konkurs polski (2018)

The chicken lost its head, the cow’s guts are out in the open and blood is spurting all over the screen. The protagonist of Gobble Up is employed at a meat processing plant. Work at a production line where processes are automated has made her approach her job and its effects in a cool-headed way devoid of emptions. Each day, she makes chicken for dinner, but one day, a piece of meat starts staring at her in a strange way. "Eatself" is a grotesque animation about what ends up on our plates. Not only for the people with strong nerves or vegetarians.
