Another newly released animation from Sang-Ho Yeon whose zombie thriller and box office hit Train to Busan was shown at QFT last year.

Similar in tone and style to his earlier hard-hitting anime films The King of Pigs and The Fake, Seoul Station follows a handful of homeless people existing on the fringes of society as they become embroiled in a zombie outbreak at the South Korean capital’s central station. The grisly events unfolding are a cypher through which the filmmaker comments on serious social issues such as class prejudice, misogyny, and the government military.
