Parasite Eve

November déjà-vu in a Seoul lab, the scent of formaldehyde so sharp it curls the nostrils. A geneticist's preserved wife revives cell by cell, assembling crowds of mitochondria into something glaring at the skylight. One long zoom from a tripod and a jump-cut—early Hou Hsiao-hsien horror by way of a subway car.
