In a farm, there's a modest sense of accomplishment and closeness that it's hard to truly grasp unless you have lived through it, and anyone who has, know that the farmer's life is a constant challenge, a daily race, and yet, at times, it invigorates and makes us feel free.
Minari captures that idea with its realistic portrayal of a family of Korean immigrants starting a new life as farmers in the landscape of Arkansas. It is a beautifully filmed story that follows through the good winds and grace of a simple life, while also accepting and showing the great pain and undertaking that comes with it. While at first it seems like it tries to romantic the hardships, it ultimately achieves a perfect balance that falls into the softness of the human soul, where both good and bad coexists.
There's a lovely sense of ambience to Minari, masterfully crafted through its grounded cinematography and combined with an absolutely beautiful soundtrack that moves you to tears.
A good experience, all in all.
