Abstract

As the winner of the 72nd Palme d’Or at Cannes as well as the Best Film of the 92nd Academy Awards, the Parasite is a critical realist film directed by Bong Joon-ho from South Korea. Through a variety of simple images, the director has formed a metaphor system of interrelation, mutual restriction and dramatic tension, which makes the film not only have multiple interpretations, but also rich in deep connotation. Based on the analysis of parasite metaphor, odor metaphor and space metaphor in the film, this paper interprets and analyzes Bong Joon-ho’s creative intention and shooting techniques.
