Synopsis
When human remains stuffed inside a dead cow are found in a World War II German bunker on the coast, Capitain Van der Weyden is assigned to investigate the mystery, as well as other, no less bizarre, discoveries.

How odd is odd? A film with a cast of characters that made my world seem normal. Haven't seem many Bruno Dumont films with humour in them. Most of the time they are sad and grim. Nice to smile again.
