00:00:00.729 --> 00:00:04.025
Just how inspiring are the themes in Minari?

00:00:12.455 --> 00:00:14.549
The short answer: Very.

00:00:14.549 --> 00:00:17.610
This thoughtful drama tells the story of the
Yi family,

00:00:17.610 --> 00:00:21.599
who move to Arkansas to follow the father's
dream of starting a farm.

00:00:21.599 --> 00:00:26.210
This wholesome film is chock-full of hardworking
characters from all walks of life.

00:00:26.210 --> 00:00:29.619
Parents show determination and teamwork in
spades,

00:00:29.619 --> 00:00:34.379
learning how to be more compassionate and
supportive of one another in trying times.

00:00:38.143 --> 00:00:42.100
The film also promotes character strengths
like perseverance and empathy --

00:00:42.100 --> 00:00:46.441
especially when the Yis work together to solve
problems and meet one another's needs.

00:00:47.780 --> 00:00:52.609
Iffy stuff is pretty minimal, too -- just
some loud arguments, an injury-free fire,

00:00:52.609 --> 00:00:54.806
and a few scenes with offensive language.

00:00:55.392 --> 00:00:58.894
Common Sense says Minari is fine for teens
13 and up,

00:00:58.894 --> 00:01:01.595
and we've named it a Common Sense Selection.

00:01:01.850 --> 00:01:07.057
