Our take

In this uproariously off-the-wall mockumentary, sausages are stuffed with more than just meat and spices, encasing civic pride, local corruption, and regional inequality too. Sweetly funny with an astringent edge to its satire, this cured-meat comedy pays hearty tribute to small-town eccentricity.
