Mosquito State (Polish: Komar) is a 2020 Polish-American psychological thriller[2] film co-written, directed, and produced by Filip Jan Rymsza. It stars Beau Knapp as a "Wall Street genius who becomes the willing host to a colony of mosquitoes".[3]

A review in The New York Times called it "a disquieting merger of body horror and social commentary... pierced by moments of disturbing beauty".[3]

The film had its world premiere on 4 September 2020 at the Venice Film Festival,[1] where it won the Bisato d'Oro for Best Cinematography.[4]
