AN INTERVIEW WITH DADDY'S...

AN INTERVIEW WITH DADDY’S… documentary is dedicated to my daddy as something memorial of him since his funeral. The title took up quite a majority of my time. Nonetheless, I ended up with the most realistic and frankest one. Possessive pronouns are discarded to be as impersonal as possible. In my opinion, what makes humans human is love. Despite his physical absence, he will always stay in our heart - the heart of those who love him unconditionally, of those who will remember him as the proudest son, the most devoted husband and the greatest father. Despite this tragic universe, he is my one and only superhero.

Bo - a lesbian

“Whoever you are, under any circumstances you can always enjoy your life. I am happy right now for being myself, hardship comes but goes then.”

Mrs Sau - a single mother

“Happiness is supposed to be created by ourself instead of waiting for it from someone else. Being able to let my daughter lean on, to me that is enough.”

Miss Tam - an actress

“I am proud of myself for trying hard to achieve my goals though not many people see it. They often look at my success and say that it is just because of fortune.”

Cong Chinh - a 7-year-old boy

“I want to be an excellent student but not by going to many extra classes like now. Because of that, I hardly hear my mom’s voice.”

Thao - a girl with tattoos
