Film screening and discussion: "Three Seasons"
The first film to receive both the Grand Jury Prize and the Audience Award at the Sundance Film Festival, "Three Seasons" presents a variety of characters as they experience the past, present, and future of Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon) in the early days of “Đổi Mới,” the state capitalist market reforms initiated in 1986.
"Three Seasons" was the first American film to be made in Vietnam after the U.S. lifted its 30-year trade embargo in 1994.
