Parasite + Intro15
In modern day Seoul, the struggling Kim family seizes a chance to climb the social ladder by cunningly infiltrating the lives of the wealthy Park family. Their scheme unfolds seamlessly, until one stormy night changes everything. With its meticulously constructed set pieces and outstanding ensemble cast, Bong Joon-ho’s genre-blending, darkly comic thriller solidified New Korean Cinema as a global powerhouse. Sweeping nearly every major award from Cannes to the Oscars, Parasite made history as the first non-English-language film to win the Academy Award for Best Picture.
All tickets to this screening cost £5. Part of the Oxford University’s April Fakes Day 2025 programme (https://torch.ox.ac.uk/april-fakes-day)
Reviews
‘A tragicomic masterclass that will get under your skin and eat away at your cinematic soul.’
★★★★★
Mark Kermode, The Observer
‘Pivoting from hysteria to grotesque on a moment’s notice, it’s a bloodthirsty farce.’
★★★★★
Hannah Strong, Little White Lies

Our beautiful art deco inspired auditorium can be found just off East Oxford's Cowley Road. We are open 7 days a week. We open the cinema and box office 30 minutes before the scheduled start time of each film, and the Box Office then closes 10 minutes after the film starts. We don’t show adverts, just a couple of trailers, so don't be late as the film itself starts very close to the advertised time!
