Synopsis
Director
Situated on the demarcation line between North and South Vietnam, that is, on the 17th Parallel, the movie shows the daily life of the people together with their struggle against the Americans. Constant bombing by B52's obliges the Vietnamese people to live underground by day and to work on the land by night. In only a few weeks more than twenty thousand tons of bombs were dropped on the area.
