LIVESTOCK
LIVESTOCK
Alaçatı whispers of endless turquoise waters and easy salvation. But for Egor, a bartender clinging to the ragged edge of sobriety, the resort town reveals itself as a sun-bleached purgatory. Here, the hospitality machine strips away the glamour to expose a feral order—a world cloven in two: those who wield the whip, and those bred merely as livestock.
Beneath the merciless Aegean sun, Egor binds himself to a high-end bar that functions as an abattoir. He is drawn into a psychological death-dance with Nedim, a chemically deranged floor manager who embodies the erratic cruelty of the system itself.
In a place where excess is the only religion, sobriety is a mortal sin.
What begins as seasonal labor devolves into a desperate ballet upon the razor’s edge of madness. Sparked by a violent reckoning on a night bus and choked by the toxic exhaust of unending nights, Egor’s defenses rot away. As the season hurtles toward its apocalyptic climax, the boundary between the hunter and the hunted bleeds out into the dark.
Ultimately, Livestock is the story of a man fighting to stand upright in a world built to break him to his knees.
