Parasite is a South-Korean black comedy film. The plot of the film revolves around the life of a wealthy family who is unknowingly housing a “parasite” within their very home in the form of another poorer family. Throughout the film, we see glimpses of how the poorer family evades detection whilst feeding on their hosts. Eventually, they discovered that they aren’t the only parasites infesting the household, and things soon deteriorate from there.
