NEON celebrates “A Year in Cinema” with a video retrospective Bong Joon Ho’s Parasite on the Anniversary of its World Premiere at the Cannes Film Festival (where it became the first Korean film to win the coveted Palme d’Or). The film went on to festivals across the country, including Telluride, Toronto, and the New York Film Festival. NEON released the film in theaters in October, where it has since amassed over $53 million at the domestic box office, breaking multiple records including highest per-screen average of the year and highest per-screen average for a foreign language film of all time.
If you’ve yet to experience the phenomenon that is Parasite, check out the trailer and synopsis below.
Synopsis:
Greed and class discrimination threaten the newly formed symbiotic relationship between the wealthy Park family and the destitute Kim clan.
Parasite stars Kang-ho Song, Sun-kyun Lee, and Yeo-jeong Jo.
