Trương Minh Quý is a filmmaker from Buon Ma Thuot in the Central Highlands of Vietnam. He is an alumnus of 2012 Asian Film Academy and 2016 Berlinale Talents. His directorial credits include The Tree House (2019) and The Attendants (2021). Viet and Nam (24) is his latest film.
In the depths of the underground coal mines, where danger awaits and darkness prevails, Nam and Viêt, both young miners, cherish fleeting moments, knowing that one of them will soon leave for a new life across the sea. But the departure cannot happen as lying somewhere deep within the earth, in the far-off forest is Nam’s father, a soldier, whose remains they’re compelled to find. Together, following the mysteries of memories and dreams, they retrace the path to the past.
