Okja
2017 · TMDB 7.3
Directed by Bong Joon Ho
A young girl named Mija risks everything to prevent a powerful, multi-national company from kidnapping her best friend - a massive animal named Okja.
Why it matters
Bong again, this time with a super-pig, a corporate villain played with relish by Tilda Swinton, and a young girl's determination that the creature is a person. The tonal swing from slapstick to horror is the point.
