class reversal

His surrealist films like 'The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie' and 'Viridiana' systematically dismantle class hierarchies and expose the hypocrisy of social order through absurdist scenarios.

His realist dramas consistently depict class struggle and the inversion of power dynamics, showing how working-class characters navigate systems designed against them in films like 'I, Daniel Blake'.

His masterpiece 'Parasite' and other works explore class reversal through genre-bending narratives where lower-class characters infiltrate and destabilize wealthy households in shocking ways.
