2025 is significant.
It marks the 50th year of the end of the Vietnam War and 25 years from the disappearance of South Vietnam by 2050.
Over 40,000 Vietnamese-Americans living in Sacramento still look back to their now sinking homeland, where millions will be continuously displaced and stories still yet to be made known.
History is repeating. And this film is the first to call attention to the hidden experience of Vietnam's disappearance.
