    “Yen’s Life” received the Silver Lotus award at the 19th Vietnam Film Festival in 2015 (including Best Actress in a leading role, Best Cameraman, best production design and best soundtrack). It also won top prizes at the 9th World Premieres Film Festival in the Philippines in 2016. The film is a touching story about Yen, a lovely 10-year-old country girl who was forced to marry Hanh, a 9-year-old boy. Her life was subject to the ups and downs of her husband’s family. The film portrays the strong perseverance and virtue of Vietnamese women as well as the search for happiness. With “Yen’s life”, Dir. Dinh Tuan Vu has successfully told a simple yet meaningful visual story about the lives of Vietnamese farmers before and after the 1945 August Revolution with a focus on the fate of Vietnamese women in the old days, their sacrifices and strengths in overcoming difficulties.

Early morning silence is broken by screeching tires as a helicopter bears down on a speeding vehicle. Taking a quick corner, the team tumbles out into the woods as their car pulls away. Now they must make their way through the thick of nature and thick gunfire to accomplish their mission. Not a single word of dialogue is spoken throughout the entire film. Instead, the music, sounds, images and deeply truthful acting turn a simple plot into an intense experience. Passion and intrigue keep building to the very end.

Salomé

After the lewd and frenetic Dance of the Seven Veils, and with the solemn pledge from the very lips of Herod himself that she could have whatever her heart desires up to half his kingdom, wanton and proud young Salomé comes before her king with an unreasonable demand. Beguiled by John the Baptist, and then scorned for the sake of his god, lascivious Salomé—encouraged by her mother, the vindictive, Herodias—commands that John be executed and his head delivered on a silver platter.
