About this event
Event Description: MINARI (2020)
A tender and sweeping story about what roots us, MINARI follows a Korean-American family that moves to a tiny Arkansas farm in search of their own American dream.
The family home changes completely with the arrival of their sly, foul-mouthed but incredibly loving grandmother. Amidst the instability and challenges of this new life in the rugged Ozarks, MINARI shows the undeniable resilience of family and what really makes a home.
MINARI is a semi-autobiographical take on writer and director Lee Issac Chung s upbringing. It had its world premiere in 2020, winning the US Dramatic Grand Jury prize as well as the US Dramatic Audience Award and has since received critical acclaim. With six nominations at the 93rd Academy Awards, many declare it to be one of the best films of 2020.
