In the spring of 2005, an old mother living in Hanoi receives a diary. The diary carries the notes of a young woman doctor who worked at a national liberation front hospital for two years starting in 1968 until her death. The diary was first discovered by a US military officer, who kept it for 35 years. The diary was then published in Vietnam and caused a sensation. The long moving journey linking Vietnam with the US is depicted through a true story adapted by Dan Nyat Minh, one of Vietnam's top film directors.
This film is unique in its reflection of the war in Vietnam with all devastating effects on lives of people on all sides. It is not your typical black-and-white story of the good guys fighting the bad guys. It is a true story of a young Vietnamese woman, a doctor who had recorded her thoughts in the midst of the killing, not knowing if she will live to see the next day.
