About The Legend of the Mother
At a maternity ward in South Vietnam, a midwife adopts three orphaned children after their mothers, undercover Communist spies, go missing or die in action.
Directed by Bạch Diệp, The Legend of the Mother leans on a strong ensemble — Trà Giang, Trọng Khôi, Ngọc Bích — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1987.
