Description
"Filmmaker Erik McCowan focuses his lens upon the turkey-[obsessed] in Cuero, Texas. In this documentary, McCowan merrily chronicles how turkey farming has shaped Cuero through a century-long lineage of turkey drives, Turkey Trots, and turkey races - at the same time deftly delivering the tragedy of how Americans' taste for tender, mass-produced birds ruined the independent farmer and disfigured the turkey into a white-feathered mess."--Cover. Also features the Great Gobbler Gallop, an annual two-event competition between Cuero and Worthington, Minnesota, who both claim the title of Turkey Capital of the World.
