Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This 2010 release predated Vietnam's mainstream hip-hop explosion by nearly a decade, making it a time capsule of pre-viral street culture.
Hà Lê, who played Nam, was an actual pioneer of Vietnamese hip-hop rather than an actor — director Nguyễn Đức Việt specifically sought real scene veterans.
