The Miner is a multilayered story with great historic relevance. The script is well-developed and through its dramatic moments allows the viewer to identify deeply with the hero. It thrusts a strong take-away message at the audience that sometimes the right thing to do is to go against what is accepted; sometimes the right thing to do is to disobey.
