Parasite



Summary: Ki-woo's parents are unemployed and trying to make ends meet. After his friend refers him to an affluent family seeking a tutor, Ki-woo tells a white lie about his qualifications and lands the job. Pretty soon, his family members are conveniently landing jobs as well!


Takeaways: A unique thriller that left my heart racing, but for different reasons than most films. Fascinating characters + white lies = eerie fates. P.S. Don't let the Korean language dissuade you. Reading the subtitles doesn't take away the suspense or strangeness of the film.
