Parasite (B&W Version)

Joon-Ho Bong / KR, 2019 / 132 min.

What drives a filmmaker to rerelease his film in black and white? According to Bong Joon-Ho, the acclaimed director of Palme d’Or winner Parasite, it is all about a genuine love of film. Shades of black, white and grey lend an ‘even more tragic’ dimension to the characters, says the filmmaker. Bong’s comedy thriller in black and white about a Korean family in a tight corner won the IFFR audience award.
