Movie evening Canada – Switzerland as part of Journées de la Francophonie celebrations in Slovakia

A family of Vietnamese refugees settled in Montreal in 1975 in the hope of starting a new life, and went through a series of successes and failures as they tried to adapt to their new country. The film interweaves their experiences in Canada with flashbacks to their comfortable life in Vietnam, the political upheavals that forced them to flee and their perilous journey across the Pacific. Brilliantly adapted from the Governor General's Award-winning novel of the same name by Kim Thúy, this story of resilience in the face of adversity is gripping and deeply moving.
