Set against the backdrop of the Vietnam War, the narrative follows two sisters who escape the destruction of their village, only to be torn apart by their divergent paths. While Mai survives as a bar girl in Saigon, Tâm joins the Viet Cong, driven by anger and a desire for revenge. Their ten-year separation raises questions about survival and the possibility of reconciliation. This poignant tale explores themes of family, survival, and the enduring scars of war, marking a significant shift in Libby Fischer Hellmann's writing style.
