Bong Joon Ho brings his singular mastery home to Korea in this pitch-black modern fairytale. Screened at Mia in conjunction with our special exhibition, "The Shape of Time: Korean Art After 1989." The film screening is free, but tickets are required. Get yours: https://bit.ly/3vSIpmJMeet 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.
By turns darkly hilarious and heart-wrenching, PARASITE showcases a modern master at the top of his game.
"The Shape of Time: Korean Art After 1989" is on view through June 23, 2024.
