Men & Chicken

Men & Chicken (Danish: Mænd og Høns) is a 2015 Danish-language comedy film directed by Anders Thomas Jensen.

They discover that their biological father is Evelio Thanatos, a geneticist specialised in stem cell research.

To learn about their mother and to meet their biological father, the brothers choose to visit the "Island of Ork" where they find out that they have three other half-brothers (Franz, Josef and Gregor).

He then shows Elias a room full of chickens and tells him they don't mind as they are big enough to lay eggs.

While Gabriel is away the four brothers go out to find women and jobs, but end up in a series of mishaps at a nursery and then a care home.

As Gabriel is about to leave the island with the mayor's daughter, he notices a stork with tiny human feet and a cleft beak.

The other brothers return and he explains that their father was sterile and used animal sperm spliced with some of his own stem cells to fertilise his various wives.

The elder brother knew about the research and tries to be proud that he was most successful: 15% chicken, whereas the others have lower animal percentages.
