Adrift

Adrift is new Vietnamese film that made festival rounds in the last year, including Venice, Toronto and London. The movie is a mix of stories about lives and sexual desires of different people, trying to find their own way in life. The movie explores forbidden and controversial themes in the changing society of current Vietnam, exposing the conflicts between conservative traditional morals and contemporary temptations. The cast includes popular and familiar Vietnamese actors.
Although it looks like a slow and atmospheric drama, the movie seems to be interesting and meaningful insight, relevant to lives of people in other parts of the world as well.
