The story

What Is Chicken About?

The premise of Chicken without spoilers.

Teen Irish friends Mick and Kev linger on the shore, tossing rocks at empty cans and sipping cider. Mick, the more aggressive of the pair, drags Kev into a tense game of mumbly peg, his hand hovering over Kev’s with fingers spread. He slides a knife between their fingers just as the distant rumble of an approaching train grows louder, leaving Mick’s intent unsettlingly unclear.
