The Pigeon Egg Strategy

Template:Short description Template:Use dmy dates Template:Infobox film The Pigeon Egg Strategy is a 1998 Hong Kong black-and-white film directed by Max Makowski.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> One of the most notable aspects of the film is its multi-cultural nature. Makowski is a Brazilian who speaks Spanish and he shot the film with an American cast in Hong Kong with a crew of Chinese pornographers. The script was written in Germany. It was made for US$125,000 and recouped its investment through self-distribution to small independent cinemas. Completed in 1997, the 84 minute absurdist comedy about a strange chain of events that take place amongst a group of identically attired assassins, posing as German ham delivery men in Hong Kong was shot in less than 15 days.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> It appeared in the frontier section of the Sundance Film Festival and South by Southwest, and has not received any sort of major distribution, leaving its cult following to a limited number of viewers. There are many jokes about the nature of language and it is filled with puns and non sequitur. The tagline on the poster reads:

"It's all fun and games until someone loses an eye (or a 'u')."
