After a failed experiment to curb global warming, an apocalyptic ice age has killed off nearly all life on Earth. All that remains of humanity are the lucky few survivors that boarded the Snowpiercer, a train forever traveling the globe powered by a sacred perpetual-motion engine. A class system has evolved aboard the train, fiercely dividing its population—but a revolution is brewing. Visionary director Bong Joon-ho’s “enormously ambitious and visually stunning,” (Scott Foundas, Variety) film has been widely praised as a masterpiece of science fiction.
