Okja (2017) Review
Okja, Bong Joon-Ho’s 2017 masterpiece, is a satire on corporate greed and comments on animal cruelty with a very diverse perspective. The film takes place in a post-modern world where The Mirando Company has genetically modified giant pigs and placed them with farmers around the world to see what farming techniques will rear the best “super pig.” The (fictional) Mirando Company will hold a contest after 10 years, hosted by zoologist and spokesperson Dr. Johnny Wilcox (Jake Gyllenhaal) to present the world’s best super pig at a ceremony in New York City. Mija (Seo-hyun Ahn) and her Grandfather (Byun Hee-bong) live in South Korea with Okja, Mija’s best friend and an incredibly intelligent super pig. After visiting the farm in the stunning mountains of South Korea, Dr. Johnny Wilcox chooses Okja to attend the celebration of super pigs in NYC. Mija, an unbelievably strong young female lead, goes on a ridiculously dangerous and chaotic adventure to rescue her best friend, Okja.
