The main character in the movie is a little boy named Ca. He lives with his blind father, who has spent his entire life by the river. Ca’s world revolves around the river and everything associated with it, including the animals, flowers and the wooden fish his father carved for him.

Ca dreams of touching the clouds and of visiting the fancy fairy tale lands described by his father. However, Ca suffers from an incurable disease and cannot wait for the day his father has enough money to take him to the doctor.

The script for the film was inspired by director Dung’s own experiences when he wrote Father and Son in 1995.

According to the film’s producer, it will be screened in eight other countries this year./.
