MINARI begins in the 1980s. Jacob (Steven Yeun) and Monica (Yeri Han) settle in rural America after their lives fail in California. Along with their two children, they hope for a better life. In the midst of their struggles, suddenly the grandmother (Yuh-Jung Youn) appears in this small family and changes many things with her tough yet loving personality.
The problem becomes more complicated when this Korean family also has to face the issue of cultural differences. Another conflict that arises is the stigma of native Americans towards immigrants like them at that time. This drama-themed film is scheduled to be released in South Korea in March 2021.
