This documentary is a compelling journey in time. Using powerful, often new archives from sources East and West, the surprising itinerary of the Father of the Vietnamese nation will unfold before our eyes. On site testimonies of Vietnamese veterans will add a more personal perspective to the journey, and highly respected historians will bring their expert views to the equation. All these elements will interlace to shed a new light on the "Vietnamese War" and to form a comprehensive overview of the recent History of Vietnam. Analyzing the process of this long and painful revolution will enable us to better understand the challenges the country is currently facing, as it attempts to find its authentic place in today's global world.
