Chalo is a friendless security guard with a boring, monotonous job in an abandoned factory. A cockfight lover, he is desperate to have his first gamecock. Once he gets this bird—which he names Rocky—his life changes. Not having a proper place to keep and train Rocky triggers a series of events that will put Chalo’s love for his new, feathered friend to the test, in this quirky and hilarious deadpan comedy.
