Dystopian sci-fi thriller by Bong Joon ho (Parasite) about a fascist class system in a train full of survivors traveling around the world forever after the end of the world.

What do you get when a French comic book is filmed by a Korean director, in a Czech studio with an international star cast? An equally surprising and entertaining genre hit - though fans of director Bong Joon-ho (Parasite) may not be surprised by the mix of drama, grotesque humor and violent action.

The story: in the near future, a new ice age has arrived after a failed attempt to save the climate. The only survivors live together in a moving train - in the front the "haves," in the back the "have-nots. Yep, behind the popcorn entertainment is a serious social message.
