30) Parasite

Parasite is a genre-bending work by Bong Joon-ho, telling the story of a low-income family plotting ways to become hired by the affluent members of a wealthy family. The movie very adeptly interweaves the different tones of dark comedy, thriller, and social commentary that describe the stark contrast between the two families. Masterful direction leads the audiences through visual storytelling into the themes of inequality and the human desire for upward mobility.
