But that changes when a family-owned multinational conglomerate Mirando Corporation takes Okja for themselves and transports her to New York\, where image obsessed and selfpromoting CEO Lucy Mirando (Tilda Swinton) has big plans for Mija’s dearest friend. With no particular plan but single-minded in intent\, Mija sets out on a rescue mission\, but her already daunting journey quickly becomes more complicated when she crosses paths with disparate groups of capitalists\, demonstrators and consumers\, each battling to control the fate of Okja…while all Mija wants to do is bring her friend home. \n Deftly blending genres\, humor\, poignancy and drama\, Bong Joon Ho (Snowpiercer\, The Host) begins with the gentlest of premises—the bond between man and animal—and ultimately creates a distinct and layered vision of the world that addresses the animal inside us all. Okja\, which also stars Paul Dano\, Steven Yeun\, Lily Collins and Giancarlo Esposito\, will premiere exclusively on Netflix on June 28. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  URL:https://vesglobal.org/event/screening-okja-w-qa-new-york/ LOCATION:Wellington CATEGORIES:Event END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20170606T193000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20170606T220000 DTSTAMP:20260405T150907 CREATED:20170519T004441Z LAST-MODIFIED:20170519T004441Z UID:10008156-1496777400-1496786400@vesglobal.org SUMMARY:Screening - WONDER WOMAN (Los Angeles) DESCRIPTION:VES Members and Their Guests are Invited to a 3D Screening Of Warner Bros.
