Synopsis
While on a ritual pedicab (xich-lo) ride through Ho Chi Minh City, a Vietnamese American woman weighs personal revolution and "tribe-guests" against her father's role in the war, displacement, and bonds of humanity. Likening her shifting realities to "a 180-degree turn without stopping," Nguyen relates a fresh perspective about the war through 8mm. home movies, meditations on mass culture, and lucid commentary on a family legacy haunted by death and destruction.
