Chicken Suit is a dark comedy about a man going on the run from a loan shark in order to protect his girlfriend from the disaster he's created. All while wearing a chicken suit.
It's a wild ride filled with scratch tickets, unconventional robberies, gas stations, road side make outs, fast food chicken, and the great American Southwest.
