A review by Alunauwie
Written by Alunauwie on 2025-09-22
Minari is a beautifully crafted semi-autobiographical film set in the 1980s that explores the struggles and hopes of a Korean immigrant family in the US, symbolized by the resilient minari plant. The performances, especially by Youn Yuh-Jung, bring depth and authenticity to the story, earning her an Oscar for Best Supporting Actress. With consistent conflict and a philosophically rich happy ending, the film offers a touching reflection on survival, family, and cultural identity, making it a must-watch for those who appreciate heartfelt dramas.
