Parasite (2019) | Bong Joon-ho, social class and total cinema | Film Podcast

In The Ghost in the Machine, we analyze Parasite (2019), Bong Joon-ho's film that broke down all the barriers between arthouse cinema, commercial cinema, and political cinema, becoming a global phenomenon. We discuss its context within Korean cinema, its relationship to Snowpiercer, the construction of the narrative, the constant plot twists, and the fierce portrayal of social inequality in South Korea. We analyze the contrast between rich and poor, the moral ambiguity of its characters, the use of space, the dark humor, the terror that emerges from below, and the ideological debate the film generated after its release. A program to understand why Parasite is not just a "film of the year," but one of the most influential works of recent cinema.
