In times of political extremism, biting satire thrives. Following in the footsteps of Paul Thomas Anderson's "One Battle After Another," Greek director Giorgos Lanthimos presents Bugonia, a film that pits two class representatives against each other.

Ever since she took a medication from Michelle's company, Sandy (Alicia Silverstone) has been in a coma.
