Plot.

A fresco mixing the satirical, the surreal and the fantastical to portray the social and political evils of today’s Korea. A gas mask-wearing serial killer is spreading terror. Four people are on his tail on election day: Miju – a wolf-girl who leads a sect of youths who are planning their mass suicide, Bosik – a traffic cop who’s convinced he is a super hero, Patrick – a US Marine on the brink of madness following the serial killer’s murder of his Korean girlfriend, and Ju Sanggeun, the favourite of the candidates for the mayoral seat of Seoul, who has received a disturbing death threat. The man behind the mask remains a mystery. The killer is everywhere or perhaps he is simply inside each of us. –Venice Film Festival

Wiki.

Anti Gas Skin (Korean: 방독피; RR: Bang Dok Pi) is a 2013 South Korean film directed by twin brothers Kim Gok and Kim Seon.

The directors described Anti Gas Skin as a "bloody political satire" and as a homage to the films of American director Robert Altman. British film critic Tony Rayns makes a cameo in the film, appearing as a tourist in the scene where Patrick watches the changing ceremony of the guards at Gyeongbokgung Palace.Director Kim Seon started writing the screenplay after the 2008 mad cow disease beef scandal; he was critical of the reaction and policies of the Lee Myung-bak administration at the time.

Kim Gok and Kim Seon are known for their satirical criticism of Korea's mainstream ideologies, such as capitalism and authoritarianism. Their works often include graphic content, which has led to restrictions being placed on the films.
