Description
The Vegetarian is a darkly allegorical tale of power, obsession, and one woman's struggle to break free from the violence both within and without her.
After a series of nightmares, Yeong-hye's ordinary life is disrupted by her decision to purge her mind and renounce eating meat altogether. This small act of independence sets off a chain of events that threatens to destroy her marriage and her relationships with those closest to her.
The result is a bizarre and disturbing tale of control, obsession, and the fragility of human life, as Yeong-hye fights to defend her choice and maintain her sense of self.
