Description

麥是個在加州土生土長的女孩，她早就迫不及待要去海邊度過假期了。然而事與願違，她必須陪著奶奶一同前往越南 —— 奶奶此行是為了查明當年越戰期間，她丈夫的下落與真相。
A California girl born and raised, Mai can’t wait to spend her vacation at the beach. Instead, she has to travel to Vietnam with her grandmother, who is going back to find out what really happened to her husband during the Vietnam War.

Mai’s parents think this trip will be a great opportunity for their out-of-touch daughter to learn more about her culture. But to Mai, those are their roots, not her own. Vietnam is hot, smelly, and the last place she wants to be. Besides barely speaking the language, she doesn’t know the geography, the local customs, or even her distant relatives. To survive her trip, Mai must find a balance between her two completely different worlds.
