SPRING WILL COME 2024 A VIETNAMESE SHORT FILM (1548)

I am always eager to find a new experience that will add something to the humdrum of tedious chores that never seem to end. This I found in the short film that follows. See the short film first. It doesn't if you understand it or not, but it will all come together. The fluidity of the camera with its noisy background and music creates a sort of bizarre ambiance of expectation that never comes. Take a look with open eyes ...

In Spring Will Come, Sundance Festival award-winning director Marion Hoàng Ngọc Hill explores the inner lives of people confronting different kinds of loss. Distanced from their sense of home, belonging, intimacy and love, three individuals struggle to find a way forward as their emotional journeys collide.

When I met Ly, she had only ever had boyfriends. A lot of boyfriends. I had to convince her I was better than all the boys.

LoveSick: Spring Will Come

In Saigon, a young DJ and her girlfriend struggle to end their relationship. A Vietnamese-American stranger visits them, hoping to free her Father’s spirit from their apartment.

In Spring Will Come, Sundance Festival award-winning director Marion Hoàng Ngọc Hill explores the inner lives of people confronting different kinds of loss. Distanced from their sense of home, belonging, intimacy and love, three individuals struggle to find a way forward as their emotional journeys collide.

In an apartment located in a vibrant and densely packed neighbourhood complex in Saigon's District 3, a young DJ and her girlfriend quietly anticipate the end of their relationship, weary of the growing silence between them. One day, a strange Vietnamese-American woman arrives at their doorstep, hoping to free the spirit of her long-lost Father who once lived in their apartment.

“Maybe gifts aren’t worth anything when they’re wrapped in guilt.”

Produced without a written script, much of the dialogue and emotional expressions were improvised by the actors. The short brings together a team of Saigonese creatives, including Tôn Tôn Bo (a DJ who goes by Van Anh) and Ly who star alongside Vietnamese-American actress Amy Lê. 

Van Anh and Ly, who are partners in real life, are also members of Gái Nhảy, a queer collective pushing boundaries in the underground electronic music and club scene in Saigon. In 2023, director Hill came across DJ Van Anh at a club in Saigon.

”I knew immediately that I would be blessed to collaborate with her,” Hill recalled in a conversation with NOWNESS ASIA. 

“Vietnamese queer people in the West continue to have difficulty being comfortable with who they are. I returned to Saigon and witnessed a young person like Van Anh who is unapologetically proud to be herself. I wanted to capture this for queer Vietnamese people in the diaspora. I give thanks to DJ Van Anh and her partner Ly for inviting me to do so.”

The film also reflects two sides of the director and the connections she is trying to make between these parts of herself. 

"I am a child of those who left Vietnam during the war, who returned decades later to make sense of my identity. I am also a person who rejected vulnerability in all of my personal relationships until I understood that I had inherited this coping mechanism from my elders.”

While developing the short, Hill (who is based in New Orleans) was inspired by old Vietnamese songs, particularly those that resemble the traditional jazz standards that she hears every day where she lives.

“All of the songs in this film are singing about spring – yearning for the better days ahead. Welcoming these songs into the soundtrack of a struggling contemporary queer relationship tied the voices of multiple Vietnamese generations and perspectives together — moving through pain and rupture, and looking ahead with hope for healing.”February 13, 2025 .

Tôi chẳng có thứ để bảo vệ, chưa nỗ lực vì điều gì mãnh liệt. Tôi chỉ có cuộc sống tẻ nhạt và cô đơn nên tôi mới khát khao đến vậy. Nếu đã có, đã từng, thì tôi cũng chỉ có thể hoài niệm chứ chẳng mong cầu.
