Movie • 2020 • Drama
ReportIt’s the 1980s, and David, a seven-year-old Korean American boy, is faced with new surroundings and a different way of life when his father, Jacob, moves their family from the West Coast to rural Arkansas. His mother, Monica, is aghast that they live in a mobile home in the middle of nowhere, and naughty little David and his sister are bored and aimless. When his equally mischievous grandmother arrives from Korea to live with them, her unfamiliar ways arouse David’s curiosity. Meanwhile, Jacob, hell-bent on creating a farm on untapped soil, throws their finances, his marriage, and the stability of the family into jeopardy.

They do not show it on screen, but they talk a whole lot of disposing of unwanted chickens at a hatchery, and they are handled a bit roughly

7-year-old David has a weak heart, so anyone who’s triggered by kids who have the possibility of dying (he actually mentions not wanting to die) should avoid.

There is a character that carries a large heavy cross around as a religious activity. He is clearly exhausting, but there are no long term effects.

There are racist comments made by children, but they are in the form of genuine questions, but are still racially charged.
