WORLD PREMIERE
By Eddie Borey
Directed by Jeff Liu
FINAL WEEK! Ends Sunday, March 10, 2013!
"...intriguing drama...rich with emotion and mystery." - LA Times
A mixed-race family returns to Vietnam for the first time since the war. One year after the death of their strong-willed mother, siblings Winnie and Lou travel with their Irish Catholic father and Vietnamese grandfather to re-connect with their roots. Whether they embrace that past or reject it, they are haunted by their own family's ghosts and by the phantoms of Vietnam's long history.
