Although it had an incredibly small release in most Western countries, Snowpiercer went on to become a cult hit - owing to its unique visuals, inspired casting and breathtaking eye for action and storytelling.
Like Snowpiercer, his next film - Okja - has an equally impressive cast. The story follows a young Korean girl who has befriended a large, unknown creature dubbed Ojka, and tries to protect from a multinational corporation - embodied by Tilda Swinton, complete with platinum blonde hair - from taking her friend away from her.
The cast includes Jake Gyllenhaal, Paul Dano, Lily Collins, Giancarlo Esposito (Gus from Breaking Bad!) and a number of well-known Korean actors as well. The teaser, just released today by Netflix, doesn't give much in the way of story, but it definitely does give us a sense of tone.
Take a look.
