In this multi-award winning Danish horror, Academy Award winning director Anders Thomas Jensen bring us a darkly funny tale from the cutthroat world of small town butchers. Sitting in the same macabre drawer as ' Delicatessen', ' The Green Butchers' tell the story of Bjarne, & emotionally damaged stoner & Svend, an unloved, tyrannical nerd, who decide to go into business together with the sharpest skill they possess: butchery. Dog-eat-dog competition & an ex-boss with more than one axe to grind leave the boys grappling for their livelihood. So the last thing they expect a gruesome accident to provide is a glimmer of hope. But their fateful decision leads to the most unlikely of solutions & it's not long before their peculiar brand of "speciality" meat is the hottest meal ticket in town. However the town's ever-extending 'missing persons' list is beginning to draw an awful lot of attention...
