Bong Joon Ho’s Palme d’Or winner Parasite gets a first trailer

August 14, 2019 by Amie Cranswick

Neon has debuted the first trailer and a poster for director Bong Joon Ho’s (Okja) upcoming dark comedy drama Parasite. The film received world premiere at Cannes this May, where is was awarded the festival’s highest accolade the Palme d’Or, and features a cast that includes Kang-ho Song, Sun-kyun Lee, Yeo-joeng Jo, Woo-sik Choi, Hye-jin Jang, and So-dam Park; take a look 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.
