Synopsis

BEETLE QUEEN CONQUERS TOKYO delves into the mystery surrounding Japan's age-old love affair with insects. The film is a complex meditation on nature, beauty, philosophy and Japanese culture that might just make you question if your 'instinctive' repulsion to bugs is merely a trick of western conditioning.
