A Sense of Place

This film is an intimate portrait of four Vietnamese Australians, who for the past 30 years, have searched to find their sense of place in Australian. A Buddhist nun, a fashion designer, a student and a playwright - their paths have never crossed yet they share in their struggle for identity, maintaining a connection to their cultural roots and reconciling two worlds - Vietnam and Australia. Using dramatic ABC and Australian War Memorial footage, this half hour documentary for Compass illuminates a pathway for all of us - the search for a sense of meaning in our lives - a sense of place.
