Inspired by writer/director Lee Isaac Chung’s childhood as the son of South Korean immigrants in rural Arkansas, Minari is a gentle story of a family’s unexpectedly rich harvest. At its centre is an enchanting performance by a child actor: little Alan Kim, who plays seven-year-old David Yi with a mixture of real-kid impishness and quiet wonder.
Through David’s eyes, we see a familiar story unfold: A family in search of its own American dream arrives in the Ozarks in the 1980s, with father Jacob (Steven Yeun) seeing hope in the neglected fields of their new property.
