The Cow of Queens
coming of age-buddy comedy-animal rescue-road movie-drama mash-up
When a cow escapes from a local slaughterhouse onto the streets of Queens, a dying man and his daughter embark on one last adventure to save it. Chasing an impossible dream like Don Quixote and Sancho Panza, they contend with the Butcher who wants his damn cow back and the dad’s cancer...which threatens to separate this inseparable duo.
