Which is more final, the gun or the camera? Armed with a powerful visual style, Oscar®-nominated filmmaker Kim Nguyen reveals the elusive connection between two families and one iconic photo: Saigon Execution. Part history, part mystery, Saigon Story confronts the family secrets left in the wake of the Vietnam War, exposing the resilience of survivors and the blurred legacy of wartime memory.
This film includes images or references to extra-judicial executions, a search for human remains, post-traumatic stress disorder, and domestic violence. Viewer discretion is advised.
