With just a week to go until it arrives in US cinemas, Neon has released a new trailer for Bong Joon-Ho’s Palme d’Or winner Parasite. The dark comedy drama features a cast that includes Kang-ho Song, Sun-kyun Lee, Yeo-joeng Jo, Woo-sik Choi, Hye-jin Jang, and So-dam Park; watch it here…
Meet the Park Family: the picture of aspirational wealth. And the Kim Family, rich in street smarts but not much else. Be it chance or fate, these two houses are brought together and the Kims sense a golden opportunity. Masterminded by college-aged Ki-woo, the Kim children expediently install themselves as tutor and art therapist, to the Parks. Soon, a symbiotic relationship forms between the two families. The Kims provide “indispensable” luxury services while the Parks obliviously bankroll their entire household. When a parasitic interloper threatens the Kims’ newfound comfort, a savage, underhanded battle for dominance breaks out, threatening to destroy the fragile ecosystem between the Kims and the Parks.
Parasite is set for a US release on October 11th.
