🏠🪨 Parasite Movie discussion

## 🏠🪨 Parasite Movie discussion on class, manners, and the violence under a “nice life”

Short summary
Parasite starts like a hustle-comedy and ends like a horror story about differences in social class. One family gets “invited” into a rich household… and the house itself turns into a weapon: space, smell, language, who gets to relax, who gets to hide. It’s funny. Then it’s uncomfortable. Then it’s unforgettable.

Why this is worth showing up for
Because Parasite isn’t just “rich vs poor.” It’s about how class lives in your body: the way you speak, what you’re embarrassed by, what you’ll do to avoid falling back down.

What we’ll explore

• The house as a class machine - stairs, doors, basements, “privacy,” who really belongs where
• Work, dignity, and humiliation - when does “making it” start to feel like selling yourself?
• The moral trap - who’s guilty when the system is designed to make people compete for scraps?
• Comedy → horror - why the tone shift hits so hard, and what it’s saying about tone shifts in modern life

How we’ll do it

• Quick warm-up: “Which moment made you laugh… and then feel bad for laughing?”
• We divide our time into discussing 3 topics (class differences, family bonds, violence as a means to an end)
• Open floor to argue it out - but we keep it grounded in the film
