Big in Vietnam
A movie is being filmed around Marseille. Henriette, a French-Vietnamese director, is shooting Les liaisons dangereuses, assisted by her son Mike. Soon, all activity must stop. The main actor is missing. Henriette leaves the stage and goes looking for him. In the port city, Henriette wanders around, discovering a world that reminds her of the one she left. There, she meets a man haunted by a journey of no return. (MD) Mati Diop’s Snow Canon screens in the compilation programme Short Stories: Surprising Mysteries.
