Synopsis

London is caught in a perpetual blizzard – and not a single piece of snow-removal equipment can be found. The Mayor has sold it all to balance the budgets. To cover his tracks he calls upon a legendary snow-remover from Norway and Operation Snow Removal can begin. But the snow just keeps falling. London is gradually disappearing. Will flat-mates Bjørn, Wolfgang and the Dane survive? Will anyone? If this really is the next ice age. The Way The Hen Kicks is a story about gravity and awareness. About mothers and sons; love, ambition and corruption. About what it means to want to preserve something for future generations.
