“A Tourist’s Guide to Love” directed by Steven K. Tsuchida and produced by Dustin Nguyen, was released globally on April 21. The script was written by Eirene Donohue – Vietnamese-American, inspired by her own travels when returning to discover her roots. The production unit’s representative expects the film to partially recreate the rich and vibrant culture of Vietnam.

Talking about “A Tourist’s Guide to Love”, Eirene Tran Donohue said, even though she was born and raised in the U.S., she always has a special love for Vietnam. So, this movie is like “a love letter” that she wrote for the hometown where her mother was born.

“In the US, many people still associate Vietnam with war images, so I want the audience to know that there is more that they have not known,” said the screenwriter. “This country has beautiful landscapes, beaches, fields, mountains, vibrant cities such as Ha Noi, and ancient ones like Hoi An. Therefore, Vietnam is a harmonious connection between modernity and tradition.”

On the evening of April 18, the premiere ceremony of the film “A Traveler’s Love Journey” took place at the Hanoi Opera House. As a romantic-comedy, audiences were enthralled with American actress Rachel Leigh Cook and her character’s journey not only to discover beautiful places in Vietnam but also to find herself.

Vietnam defeat Laos 2-0 in 2023 SE Asian Games men’s football

Image
The Vietnamese, who won the gold medal in men’s football at the delayed 2021 SE Asian Games organized in Hanoi in May 2022, were expected to have an easy game, but they faced strong resistance from their Lao opponents and sometimes stayed in a deadlock at Prince Stadium in Phnom Penh. The junior Golden Stars got off to a great start in the second minute when Nguyen Van Tung headed the ball past Lao goalkeeper Solasak Thilavong into the net, following a good cross from Nguyen Thanh Nhan from the right side. With the early lead, coach Philippe Troussier’s team tried to reduce the match’s tempo, but moments of sloppy defending gave Laos some good chances. The remainder of the first half saw interesting back-and-forth attempts between the two teams.  Vietnam’s Nguyen Van Tung celebrates his opening goal in their match against Laos at the 2023 Southeast Asian Games in Phnom Penh, April 30, 2023.
