A driver without a job, a housekeeper without a home, a student without money, and a girl without prospects come together to create the perfect plan: how to become somebody and take the place of the wealthy in the shortest time possible. In a world where only efficiency and success matter, they will outsmart the system and fight for themselves, even if it means crossing the thin line between what is still allowed and what is absolutely forbidden. Bong Joon-ho shows that almost everyone dreams of a better life, a promotion, and a chance for success. But only a few – thanks to an unbridled imagination and lack of scruples – are able to reach for it all.
