Owl and the Sparrow starring Cat Ly and The Lu Le
Stephane Gauger's directorial debut, Owl and the Sparrow, depicts the journey of an orphan girl using her wits to flee her constricting small-town world to make her way through the hustle and bustle of Saigon city. There, she finds a conviction to bring two lonely souls together, creating a new family for herself.
Tired of her uncle’s constant verbal abuse, a young orphan girl named Thuy (Han Thi Pham) decides to run away from her rural home to discover the streets of Saigon. On her own, the spunky and precocious 10-year old joins other children laboring as street vendors selling postcards and flowers. One day, Thuy comes across a dynamic and interesting woman named Lan (Cat Ly), a flight attendant involved in an affair with a married man. Soon after, Thuy meets Hai (The Lu Le), a zoo employee and jilted lover who mends an aching heart. Thuy strives to forge a romance between two lonely adults and form a makeshift family.
