LOS ANGELES (WTHR) — "Parasite" made history Sunday night as it became the first foreign language film to win Best Picture at the Oscars, and the film's director, Bong Joon Ho, also won Best Director.

"Parasite" (2019)
All unemployed, Ki-taek and his family take peculiar interest in the wealthy and glamorous Parks, as they ingratiate themselves into their lives and get entangled in an unexpected incident.
"Okja" (2017)

"Mother" (2009)
A mother desperately searches for the killer who framed her son for a girl's horrific murder. Bong co-wrote the screenplay. You can watch the trailer here, but it has imagery you may find disturbing.
