Sharing about his decision to return to cinema after 5 years, Truong Giang said that he spent most of his time before that on his family and personal projects. However, he considers Tet 2026 as the "ripe" time to return to cinema with a project with a very unique mark. For Truong Giang, family is always the most important thing. Tet is the most appropriate time to tell a story about love, he said.
Having studied directing at the University of Theatre and Cinema, Truong Giang frankly admitted that being a film director for the first time was a big pressure. If in the role of actor, he only focuses on the character, then when standing as a director and producer, he is forced to control the entire process - from the script, emotional rhythm, camera angles to production progress. Being a director is a big turning point in my life, Truong Giang affirmed.
Choosing the family theme for the film "My Father's House, a room" also comes from personal experiences. Having lost her mother since childhood, Truong Giang understands the feeling of lack of family affection and wants to put it into the film of a very everyday dream: everyone longs for a complete home. According to him, this is not only an entertainment comedy, but also a place where he puts his own memories, emotions and voice.
Accompanying Truong Giang in this project is Nha Phuong, who not only plays the supporting role but also takes on the role of casting director for the first time. The actress said that during the time she temporarily put her artistic activities on hold to take care of her family, she still quietly supported her husband in many stages of the project. Although she cannot help but worry when trying her hand at a new role, Nha Phuong sees this as a way to become a solid support for her husband in her stressful filmmaking journey.
In the young actor role, Doan Minh Anh plays the role of An - Truong Giang's daughter. The actress admitted that this was a role that brought many challenges, forcing her to restrain and renew her acting style, unlike previous psychologically heavy roles. Working with Truong Giang - a famous director and actor with meticulousness - also created a lot of pressure, but at the same time helped Minh Anh mature in acting.
