A documentary that follows the lives of multiple chicken enthusiasts as they prepare for the New Zealand national Chicken competition.

Patrick copes with his grief by living among birds. After a long and full life, Patrick has found where he wants to see out the rest of his days. In an odd and isolated town, Birdlings Flat, even there his home defies societal norms. Patrick has learnt to make do with what he has, living in his second-hand sanctuary, nurturing and caring for the flock of animals he saved. Grateful to be alive, he embraces life completely on his own terms among his feathered friends. My Dying Place explores the journey to self acceptance, and the intertwining threads of life and death that binds us all. It asks the question, what happens to us after we die?
