Together they traveled from Ho Chi Minh City to Hanoi, exploring the history they shared with the people they met along the way. The resultant footage became Which Way is East? The film is both a travel diary and a collage of impressions of road trip tourism and city life. It encompasses Vietnamese parables, the histories of Vietnamese people she met, and the culture clash of an inquiry into shared memories, of the war as endured versus the American TV war. 541 0 PFA 1612-01-14463.
