A second trailer has been released for the Korean auteur's Cannes winner.
Winner of the Palme d'Or at this year's Cannes Film Festival, Bong Joon-ho's Parasite sees the Korean filmmaker return to his native language following a stint in English language filmmaking with Snowpiercer and Okja.
Parasite explores South Korea's class divisions through a story of two families - one working class, one middle class - who form a symbiotic relationship that becomes threatened by the arrival of an interloper. Song Kang-ho, Lee Sun-kyun, Jo Yeo-jeong, Choi Woo-shik, Park So-dam and Jang Hye-jin star.
Parasite doesn't have a UK/ROI release date yet but you can check out the new US trailer below.
The official synopsis reads:
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.
