This story is loosely based on my experiences as an adopted Vietnamese woman and conversations that I’ve had with my own mother about motherhood and adoption. I have always wondered what I would do if I were in my birth mother's shoes.

In Prague, I found myself fascinated by the second generation Vietnamese-Czech population and the similarities to my experiences with cultural disconnect and assimilation. After learning about the Baby Box initiative across Eastern Europe, I feel as if it would be a disservice to myself to not center my film around a Vietnamese protagonist and adoption.
