This is a story of a man, a woman and chickens. Laty is an alluring and seductive woman from Central America who, in the middle of her life, scratches out a living in a rural valley of Virginia. Henry, a former Catholic priest who has maintained his ideal of humanity, is seeking peace toward the end of his life. Chickens bring the two together. Their forged relationship suits their individual needs. Henry lusts for Laty, and Laty wants Henry for his friendship and personal favors. Each struggles to be free of the past. Only one succeeds. As their lives play out, billions of birds are raised and processed in the valley to be consumed throughout the world. Did you have a piece of fried chicken today? Then you might have played a role in this story of a priest, a woman...and chickens.
