剧情简介：
In the 1920s-1950s, millions of Appalachians left their homes in the mountains and migrated to urban Midwestern centers in Indiana, Illinois, Michigan and Ohio. The Mountain Minor is the story of a life-worn Charlie Abner, a generation later, as he struggles with leaving his present life and family in Ohio to return to the Kentucky mountain home and musical heritage that once defined him. The story is partially told in flashbacks to depression era Eastern Kentucky, when Charlie's parents, Oza and Vestal Abner, face the difficult decision to leave the way of life they know and move to Ohio for employment and better opportunities. The Mountain Minor is unique in that all of its principal actors are traditional musicians - such as Smithsonian Folkways artist Elizabeth LaPrelle and acclaimed banjoist and fiddler Dan Gellert - and they perform all of the music in the film. Deeply infused with the traditional Appalachian musical genres of Old Time and Bluegrass, The Mountain Minor tells an overlooked story about the people and culture behind the resurgence of American Roots Music today and highlights artful responses to the difficult circumstances of human migration.
译文(2): 在20世纪20-50年代，数以百万计的阿巴拉契亚人离开他们在山区的家园，迁移到印第安纳州、伊利诺伊州、密歇根州和俄亥俄州的中西部城市中心。《小山》讲述的是一代人之后的查理 · 阿布纳(Charlie Abner)的故事，他一直在努力摆脱目前在俄亥俄州的生活和家庭，回到肯塔基州的山区家园，回到曾经塑造他的音乐遗产。这个故事在一定程度上可以追溯到肯塔基州东部的萧条时期，当时查理的父母奥扎和维斯塔尔 · 阿布纳面临着艰难的决定，要离开他们熟悉的生活方式，搬到俄亥俄州寻找工作和更好的机会。《小山》的独特之处在于，它所有的主要演员都是传统音乐家，比如史密森尼民俗录音室艺术家伊丽莎白?拉普雷尔(Elizabeth LaPrelle)、著名的班卓琴手和小提琴手丹?盖勒特(Dan Gellert) ，他们演奏了影片中的所有音乐。《小山》融合了传统的阿巴拉契亚音乐流派，包括古老的时代音乐和蓝草音乐，讲述了美国根音乐复兴背后被忽视的人民和文化的故事，并突出了对人类迁徙困境的巧妙回应。
