If you’re looking for something similar I’d consider it along the same lines as Snowpiercer (which is actually also quite violent, but in a bit more of a Hollywood actiony kinda way) or Parasite, by the same director, (which also has some violence but IIRC that’s mostly restricted to one scene). All interesting takes on class structure/privilege.
