Synopsis
In the misty mountains of North Vietnam, Di, a teenage girl, is facing a difficult decision: to become an adult by starting a family of her own or continuing her studies. The controversial tradition of “bride-kidnapping” from the Hmong community forces girls to lose their innocence or give in to the temptation of false independence.
