You are invited to film screening of “Dong Loc T-Conjunction” by Director Luu Trong Ninh.
“Dong Loc T-Conjunction” (1997) is a film by Director Luu Trong Ninh based on the real story related to the historically famous location of Dong Loc T-Conjuntion in Ha Tinh province, Central Vietnam. The Dong Loc intersection, which played a vital role in the transportation of necessities and ammunition from the north to the south during anti-American war, is associated with the death on July, 24th 1968 of 10 young female volunteers who were buried alive by bombs dropped by the US forces while doing their mission to keep control of the road. The film depicts the real story of 10 young female heroes who were very brave and positive with strong patriotism and at the same time innocent and sensitive with lots of beautiful dreams and wishes of the youth about life, love and happiness.
Produced since 1997, “Dong Loc T-conjunction” has won different prestigious prizes:
