Titled “Lien in Me Linh, or War and its crimes” by Belgian writer-director Jean Marc Turine, both works detail the misfortune of Lien, an 18-year-old AO victim living in Hanoi’s outlying district of Me Linh. Lien’s father was exposed to AO/dioxin while fighting on central and Central Highlands battlefields.
