Yorgos Lanthimos' Bugonia is a film that exists somewhere between satire, science fiction, and psychological thriller and true to the Greek auteur's temperament, it refuses to pick a lane. The director, known for his surreal dissections of human behaviour in The Favourite and Poor Things, reimagines the 2003 South Korean cult classic Save the Green Planet! for a modern audience. The result is a film that is both audacious and uneven, equal parts allegory and absurdity.
