"Minari," the critically acclaimed story of a Korean-American family that moves to a farm in rural Arkansas in the 1980s, has won the Golden Globe for best foreign language film.
It bested "Another Round" (Denmark), "La Llorona" (Guatemala, France), "The Life Ahead" (Italy) and "Two Of Us" (France, US) during a bicoastal awards ceremony held virtually Sunday evening in the U.S.
Lee Isaac Chung, who wrote and directed the film, accepted the honor while his young daughter embraced him.
Chung said, "'Minari' is about a family. It's a family trying to learn a language of its own. It goes deeper than any American language and any foreign language. It's a language of the heart. I'm trying to learn it myself and to pass it on."
