Explicit imagery for what a parasite is and does

Rating: 9/10 (22 March 2020)

The portrayal of a wealthy family getting "infested" by not only a poor family and their former housekeepers demonstrates the different faces of parasitism. First, the poor family is capable to completely get the trust of the wealthy family by being good servants though their motivations are dominantly evil from the beginning. A starting potential love between young members of the two families never has a true chance since it is always overruled by the evil inclinations. The thought arises that the wealthy house's architecture somehow supports the hidden presence of parasites. Now, there is a deeper level of the story: Mt 13:24-29 (The Parable of the weeds). The movie tells the story of many people in this world. It tells the story of indifference. We get good things in life and we are so indifferent and ungrateful for them, that at the end we get unworthy of them and only then do we start to learn the deeper connections of the world soul while we have to compensate for the suffering we caused with our indifference. We are never only poor sheep torn by the wolves. The wealthy family is as guilty as the poor one and a war of philosophies is launched that ends detrimental for both families.
