Powdered Chickens

In the dusty landscape of 1920s rural Americana, a desperate farmer seeks to revolutionize the poultry industry through a home-brewed chemical stimulant designed to force his hens into overdrive. His daughter, caught between her father's agricultural obsession and the flirtations of a visiting urbanite, becomes the unwitting witness to a collision of worlds. When the city-dwelling visitor decides to 'improve' the formula by substituting the powder with high-grade T.N.T., the mundane farm life is violently upended. The resulting chaos is a literal explosion of feathers and slapstick, where the father's scientific aspirations meet the reckless cynicism of the city in a pyrotechnic display of early cinematic physical comedy.
