The testimonies of five family members, over five different
periods, as they are respectively forced to leave their home
country of Vietnam when outside forces or inner turmoil shatter
their normal lives. Each story follows the journey of a family
member as they have to leave everything behind, adapt to a new
country and culture, and live with the nostalgia of their homeland
and their people.
With his Award winning work, Vietnamese Memories, Clement Baloup
chronicles - through vivid painted art and poetic storytelling -
the fate of a handful of people who, like many of their peers, were
condemned to leave a country successively occupied by the Japanese,
the French and the Americans. After Leaving Saigon, Baloup explores
a new story linked to his own, this time from a woman's perspective
and focusing on those who lef for the U.S.A. over thirty years ago.
