On the background of the seaport space covered in orange sunset, the image of two figures struggling below creates a feeling of tension, like a metaphor for the confrontation between right and wrong. The stacked container setting contributes to increasing the heavy atmosphere, reflecting the challenging journey that the main character has to face.
Above the action image layer are portraits of the cast including Meritorious Artist Hanh Thuy, Hong Anh, My Tam, Mai Tai Phen, Sy Toan, Quang Trung, Long Dep Trai, Vinh Rau and Tran Kim Hai. The characters are divided into two groups with opposite perspectives, suggesting relationships and conflicts in the film. The arrangement of eyes and position creates a feeling of a world of characters with many conflicts, where each person represents a different choice or consequence.
In the center of the poster, the character Tai played by Mai Tai Phen looks straight ahead, showing inner turmoil and the position between two boundaries. The actor said that this is a simple character but falls because of wrong choices, leading to the journey of facing the past and protecting his family.
The group of characters including Sy Toan and Tran Kim Hai are portrayed with sharp eyes, evoking the line of confrontation. Meanwhile, Meritorious Artist Hanh Thuy, My Tam and Quang Trung, Long Dep Trai and Vinh Rau have a more trầm (deep) tone, creating a feeling of gắn bó (attachement) and companionship. In particular, My Tam's role is still kept secret, but her appearance on the poster raises much curiosity about her role in the story. According to the crew, My Tam is not the female lead of the film.
The use of contrasting light between light and dark emphasized the theme of choice and consequences, while reflecting the psychological state of the central character.
The movie "Tai" is scheduled to premiere from March 6, 2026.
