About
In Saigon, family culture endures against all odds, even when familial bonds are broken. Through a mosaic of intimate portraits, *Má Sài Gòn* adopts the perspective of LGBTQ+ communities to explore a deeply human quest for love, acceptance, connection, and belonging. The film is a love letter—a luminous yet melancholic ode to a mother who is both unsettling and reassuring, and to a city that is as oppressive as it is liberating. French
subtitled version (VOSTFR). A discussion with director Khoa Lê will follow after the film.
