1974
The film features two protagonists: an inspector and his assistant, who carry out a routine inspection at a meat processing plant. During their investigation, they uncover a series of irregularities—abuses, faulty production technology, and widespread bribery. It turns out that the plant not only fails to meet standards but also poses a threat to consumers' health. Although their mission is professional, the inspection also becomes an opportunity for them to confront their own frustrations and troubled personal lives. These colleagues, who don’t quite find meaning in their work, begin to realize that their daily routine is not so different from the pathological situations they uncover in the company. While both are immersed in their own problems, they gradually start to question not only the system but also their place within it. The film blends elements of crime, social drama, and dark humor, creating a portrait of people who, although striving to fight the world around them, ultimately end up as its victims.
