To cap off Asian and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, the Swannanoa Library will be hosting Evening at the Movies, featuring the critically acclaimed film “Minari!”
Written and directed by Lee Isaac Chung, “Minari” is a semi-autobiographical movie about a Korean-American family pursuing the American dream by moving from California to a farm in rural Arkansas during the 1980s. The Yi family starts a farm in Arkansas, growing Korean produce for a market in Dallas despite Monica, the mother’s, reservations about rural life. Strain is put on the family when the market in Dallas cancels their order last-minute, the well runs dry, and Monica’s mother, Soon-ja, has a stroke. How will the Yi family overcome their great struggles? Come find out tonight at the Swannanoa Library! Free snacks will be provided.
This movie is rated PG-13.
