A zeitgeist-defining sensation that distilled a global reckoning over class inequality into a tour de force of pop-cinema subversion. Two families in Seoul—one barely scraping by, the other living in luxury, become entwined in a dangerous relationship that will lay bare the dark contradictions of capitalism with shocking ferocity. A bravura showcase for its director’s meticulously constructed set pieces, bolstered by a brilliant ensemble cast and stunning production design, Parasite cemented the New Korean Cinema as an undeniable international force, where it made history as the first non-English-language film to win best picture.–The Criterion Collection

“Parasite in black & white offers a more focused viewing experience…whilst the framework and shots are still impressively constructed, the lack of color allows viewers to spend more time focusing on the rich characterization and subliminal writing…The monochromatic palette adds an intensity to the proceedings that elevates every scene. Taking away the color almost removes a barrier between audience and film…”–Screenrant
