Plot
Bugonia is a reimagining of the 2003 Korean cult film Save the Green Planet!, with a premise that is both absurd and eerily plausible: a deluded beekeeper kidnaps the CEO of a pesticide empire, believing it to be an alien plot.
A bizarrely elegant cocktail of corporate satire, eco-horror, and cosmic paranoia.
The film unfolds as a torture thriller, philosophical chess match, and tragicomic fable about who's really destroying the planet.
Author's summary: Satirical film Bugonia stars Emma Stone and Alicia Silverstone.
