About the Film

“Parasite”(R, South Korea, 2019, 132 min.)

“Parasite” has been called Bong Joon Ho’s “pitch-black modern fairytale.” Korean families the Parks and the Kims come together in a symbiotic relationship when the Kim children install themselves as luxury service providers in the affluent Park home. Income provides stability for the Kim family, but this new ecosystem is fragile. Can their newfound comfort survive deep-rooted generational greed and class prejudice? Watch trailer here.
