Film Description:
Synopsis
On December 24, 1972, the United States airforce launched its largest airrade of the VietNam War. The epidemic caused massive death and destruction that crippled millions of Vietnamese lives at the peak of the war. However, behind the array of war is a calm little Buddhist monk who does what his heart guides him. Despite the little monk's discipline, the little monk is a child at heart and seeks escape from his mundane routine, but maintains his motive. With anticipated actions, this little monk ventures through the very depths of the turmoil of war to seek out an American Soldier and bring him back to a life that he thought would never see again.
