"The Palme d'Or winning film from the 2019 Cannes Film Festival and Best Picture Oscar winner in 2020 is one that must be seen. Though the story takes place in South Korea, the social commentary on inequality in 'Gisaengchung' is as universal as it is masterfully presented by director Bong Joon-ho ('Okja'), aided by a cast whose performances are truly noteworthy. The South Korean filmmaker manages to draw us in with an electrifying and adrenaline-filled story that plays with all expectations of being a funny and acidly satirical social satire. All the unexpected twists and turns of the plot, as well as its shocking conclusion, make this a feature film that will have you thinking long after the credits roll. At the Golden Globes, it took home the gold in the Best Foreign Language Film category, as well as being nominated for Best Director and Best Screenplay."
