Bullhead

Rundscop

Jacky comes from a prominent family of cattle farmers in the south of the Limburg. He is 33 and seems withdrawn and unpredictable, sometimes violent… He is approached by an unscrupulous veterinarian who helps him become an expert of the hormone mob business. Jacky is about to make a shady deal with a notorious West-Flemish beef trader De Kuyper, but the assassination of a federal policeman, and an unexpected confrontation with a mysterious secret from Jacky's past, set in motion a chain of events with far-reaching consequences.
