Butter is a comedy about life at the state fair butter carving
competition. The man who has won the competition for the last 15
years straight is asked by the judging panel to step aside and let
someone else have a shot at winning the competition. So, in an
effort to carry on the family tradition of winning the contest, the
man's wife decides to enter the competition. Soon she is
joined by three other competitors including a prostitute who is
competing with her for more than the prize in the state fair. Chief
among the competition is an 11 year old African American girl who
does a really good job of carving butter. Will the little girl
put the family tradition to shame? Tune in and find out. Four
stars.
