In A Family Of Butchers, Young Jere Is THE ODD ONE OUT.
PETA will not be pleased with the trailer for Johan Timmers' Dutch drama The Odd One Out (Vreemd Bloed). For that matter, I doubt there's anything about the story, which follows a family of butchers, that they will enjoy. Their loss, as it looks to be a remarkably put together bit of work.
Slightly surrealistic family drama about three generations of butchers set in the South of the Netherlands from 1960 till 1983. The youngest member of the family is born on Christmas Eve 1960. As his brothers, Cor, Arie and Bolle, he is predestinated to become a butcher. But the child, called Jere, is different and so provokes his father. At the same time father is forced to give up his traditional butcher shop in competition with modern times.
It's the surreal touches that gives this one an edge and separates it from the run of the mill family drama pack. And it certainly doesn't hurt that it looks to be very well shot and performed as well. But, yes, PETA will not be pleased.
