Parasite is a masterfully done and gripping story about four people, who come up with a concept of a perfect snatch, since none of them seem to have any other prospects. The four of them ― a driver without work, a housewife without a home, a penniless student, and a girl without a future ― will concoct a perfect plan to become somebody in the shortest possible time, and take the place of the rich. In a world where efficiency and success are the only things that matter, they are going to outwit the system and get a piece of the cake for themselves. Even if it will mean crossing the thin line between what is still considered legal and the things absolutely forbidden.
