In this documentary, filmmaker Thavisouk Phrasavath details the painful story of how he and is family faced hardship and poverty as Laotian refugees during the Vietnam war. Combining interviews and archival footage, Phrasavath explores not only the experience of betrayal that his family endured when they were forced to flee their homeland, but the larger scheme of geopolitics that put the events into play. ~ Cammila Albertson, All Movie Guide
