Talking about the journey of making a movie in the seminar "From "geography" - Gen Z continues the story of Vietnam", director Bui Thac Chuyen said that the work was built from more than a decade of research, interviews with witnesses, and comparison of documents - both domestically and internationally - to recreate the Cu Chi geographical space from a multidimensional perspective.
Director Bui Thac Chuyen emphasized: "Actually, just say everything we believe in, love most sincerely, don't worry".
It is noteworthy that geography: Sun in the dark does not focus on direct propaganda messages, but leaves space for emotions and thoughts for viewers to contemplate.
The everyday details of the campaign soldier - from the desire to live, to be loved, to pain, separation - are the factors that create the humanistic depth of the work.
The young perspective in the seminar also brought an interesting balance. content creator Nguyen Le Nam Phuong questioned the bravery and solidarity of the people in the modern era.
Meanwhile, artist Long Violin connects historical values with today's creative inspiration, emphasizing the role of young people in "leaving history in the language of their generation".
He affirmed: "History is not dry at all, it is all in the way each person conveys".
The highlight of the event is the symbolic image of "New Year's Light" in a short video - a metaphor for the sacred moment when the light from the past (the oil lamp under the tunnel) is transmitted to the future (light from the hearts of young people).
This is also a transfer between generations - from those who lived and fought in the darkness of war, to today's young people who continue to enlight the story of Vietnam with the light of art, creativity and the desire for peace.
