Stealing peoples' husbands!

Hurry, she’s running away.

Oh... darling... hey there .

So far,

We three: Father and two children keep wandering

from one nameless ricefield to another.

But Dien and I

have named those ricefields

according the memories we have had.

and later,

when we move to another ricefield,

we will think of this one by her name,

and my heart will stir...

The bird flu is turning out to be a huge disaster.

While typhoons cause deaths in a certain areas,

bird flu may turn into an epidemic

that can kill millions of people.

Oh Mom...

it hurts so much...

Dad...

can she... can she stay here, Dad?

No!

Why don’t you worry about the bird flu.

You want us all to die?

But, she’s all beat up...

and can hardly breathe.

Look at her... I feel sorry for her.

Sorry for her?

Well, that’s up to you.

I'm not that stupid!

Sister...

have lunch... then bring some for her.

How can she eat?

She was beaten cruelly, all over, by those woman

Eat!

hurry up!

There’s the loudspeaker again.

Dad wants to leave now.

Depart?

You heard the announcement...

we stay here, we might get caught.

But where can we go?

Where can we escape our fate.

Running all over the place like this...

the ducks are going to stop laying.

There still plenty of left-over ice in this field...

and the ducks are laying.

It’s a waste to move away.

Go!

Please have a sip...

Let me help her drink it later.

She’s really in pain

Sister, look...

What?

Steel-bonding glue.

Oh God...

and they poured it into...

that part of hers.

Water... water...

water..

Did you rescue me, sweetie?

Are you feeling better?

How long have I been here?

Almost... almost 3 days

Are these your clothes?

Yours... they were all ripped

You poor dear

Where are we that’s so deserted?

This is a duck-raising field.

Where is your mother?

I haven't seen her since I was a child

I heard you call “Mom, help me!” very clearly

Everybody is the same, calling Mom when needed

Why don’t you call your father?

I don't have a father

Why?

He left my mother to chase another woman

So we are almost the same...

Who's he?

That’s my brother, Dien.

He’s been very worried about you.

You were worried about me?

They... beat you up so badly

Yes, since I made them mad...

I am dying to have a bath

You can't yet

The water is full of potash

Inside the rice field... there's a pond of fresh water.

What are you doing?

These damn ducks

look how they ate all the new buds

Why did you plant it?

I really miss that grapefruit tree we used to have.

I wonder who dropped the seed in this field.

Care for it, then leave, you’ll just miss it again.

It’s too sad.

What’s the matter?

Nothing, honey.

I am used to suffering pain

So cruel

They used the worst kind of glue

You knew?

When they were chasing after you

I overheard them yelling it to each other

With that kind of glue... I can’t understand.

It’s understandable

When a woman’s belongings are threatened.

What do you mean?

Goodness,

Your father...

he’s terribly handsome.

What did you cook?

Porridge. I cooked it for her

Gosh, that smells so nice. I’m starving to death.

What kind is it?

Porridge... carp cooked... with lotus seed

Please eat it while it’s hot

That's all there is?

He only cooked enough for you

Please eat

I’ve never met anyone

who has taken care of me like this...

Please eat

Thanks to those women I get to stay with you

I hate cruel people.

I want to take revenge for you

I deserved to be beaten.

It’s funny

There was one guy there who had just borrowed 2 million dong for poverty relief

then he paid 1.2 million for a drink with me

That left only 800 thousand.

How could his wife control herself?

But what did you do?

Honey, I’m a whore

My dear, let’s go.

Pass it to me.

Who’s that?

Some people from the hamlet

What’s the matter?

If you don’t come, everything’ll be a mess...

Please, finish the porridge

After the harvest, are you going home?

Nowhere is home.

I’ve been moving like this since I was ten years old

What do you mean?

Moving, from one rice field to the other, nonstop

Where is your mother?

Where is your house?

What bird is that strange one, Dien?

It's a little cormorant.

It fell down from its nest...

There are plenty of crabs and snails in this ricefield

so the eggs laid by our ducks are so nice.

Oh dear, what are you doing?

Cleaning them... making them pretty.

You know

The buyers just count them by dozen or hundreds.

or look at the size.

They don’t care about cleanliness.

Let me be, I like them to be pretty.

There's... there’s a lot of fish

Let's go fishing

But your dad hasn’t go en up yet. If we go, who'll take care of the boat?

You go ahead with Dien, I'll join the two of you later.

Dad got back real late from some heavy drinking.

The bird flu is seriously spreading

The Provincial People’s Committee appeals

Please register and vaccinate your ducks

free of charge,

to stop the spread of the epidemic

For those ducks which need to be buried,

State will compensate the owners.

What are you looking at?

Huh?

Do you want to follow your mother. Huh?

You all go away.

Get lost.

The saying is true birds are given by Heaven and fish by water.

What’s wrong with your face?

Dad beat you, didn’t he?

He beats you?

It’s lucky he didn’t hit your eyes.

Poor you,

it’s because you look so much like mom.

Eat, then move on.

Dien

Get in!

How dare you?

Why did you take so long?

He thinks you were caught by some men.

They would be caught by me instead.

Suong bought us a “live-forever" plant.

She says she likes it because of its long existence.

When a leaf falls, a new plant grows from it.

Like her love for us, it lasts forever.

Oh, let me do it.

Why don’t you try this new blouse on?

And, why don’t you change your trousers?

They’re all wet.

I am having my period

When you have your period,

you should clean yourself and change more often.

I just bought a bunch of napkins.

What kind do you use?

i don’t know how to use napkins.

Let me see.

Oh dear.

Why do you do it this way?

You’ll get an incurable infection.

Well, I’m here with you

and I won’t let you suffer like this.

When you got your first period,

where was your mother?

She'd left some years before

Why?

The women in the village said that...

she was just passing through

What was she like...?

My mom?

She was very beautiful

Close your eyes...

close your eyes...

now open them..

Dad loved Mom deeply.

He worked hard, nonstop-day and night,

bought a carpenter workshop,

gardened, planted rice.

He saved money to build a new house.

He said that

He would like to build a house of happiness.

Yes, mom.

Go in and take a bath.

How are you, guys?

Say goodbye to dad.

Bye, daddy.

Come here, come here, villagers...

Mr. Thau, if you keep stopping, you’ll empty our paddy reserves.

Looking at Ms. Vo’s smile, I can’t keep myself from stopping by

You see, her smile makes this part of the river sparkle

Liar...

Let’s go away.

Ms. Vo...

Oh my, it didn’t look like anything

when it was inside the boat,

but on you.

You are as beautiful as a queen.

You liar

I just tell the truth

Why are you staring like that, you two?

You look strange.

I can’t recognize you.

Is that right?

You’re a stranger to your children...

Why are you so happy?

Have your fabric back, I can’t buy it.

What’s wrong, my dear?

Mom was lonely and sighed often.

Her sighs were long deep,

immensely sad, and fell like tear drops.

Quickly!

Oh dear!

What’s wrong with your eyes?

Perhaps because of looking at those nasty actions, Mom.

I always think that

it was because of what I said that

Mom decided to leave..

Don’t you know...

all the duck-raiser know that

Dad hardly talks to us,

he just hackles, roars

I have to listen to those sounds

and to guess what he wants.

Now I know

your Dad’s roar

At the beginning

each time he screamed

I would almost faint...

and Dien would wet his trousers

But we’ve... gotten used to it now.

We neither dare to love, nor hate anybody.

We never dream of learning,

of books or nice clothes

If Nuong wore a nice blouse,

or let her hair grow longer,

he’d bear her to death

As for me

I can only take care of duck . .

birds, rats...

and fish.

Dien never shows how much he misses Mom...

and he has to hide his tears as well.

Do you miss your Mom ?

but...

When someone asks

Dad only says...

"dead"

He doesn’t really mean that...

your poor father.

Eat it while it's hot.

This is for last night

Your dad is so “generous”

Here you are.

Ms. Chin, you take care so much on that guy,

you make us feel jealous.

Don’t be jealous, men

Tomorrow, you'll be home with your wives,

but Mr. Vo will be so lonely...

You see...

Have a rest... and some tea, please.

Almost done..

Ah, yes...

...can you help repair some furniture at home

I will pay for every thing later...

I’ll see.

hey.

So nice, big brother

Let me...

Where are you going, darling?

Why are you in such a hurry?

Let me follow you.

Oh... what a girl...

Ah...

Aya...

What’s the matter, boss?

Damn. Who threw a stone at me?

Who is there?

Let’s go, sister

Let’s go, Dien.

Hey, Dien.

Those duck raisers are no good.

So it was you who shot at them?

I never forgive anyone who hurts you.

My shot was off

otherwise he might have lost an eye.

I know that you feel sorry for me.

When one is hurt, one must take revenge

The more you take revenge

the bigger the conflict will be

I like you a lot so,

If anyone threatens you,

I will kill him!

Oh dear...

let me help you.

Please have some wine.

It's from Go hamlet and is quite nice.

You asked me to have rice.

Well, not only rice...

please have some rice wine.

Back at our boat,

you have no one serves you.

After I drink, I’ll stay.

Why should I go back to the boat?

You know yo can stay forever.

Uhm... My God,

take your blouse off, put this on.

Uhm... I know that size will fit you, my dear

Take your blouse off, don’t be shy.

You..

you stay.

Oh dear, are you embarrassed? All right, I won’t look at you.

It fits you, right?

Yes.

Just by looking I can tell your size.

Try this one...

Try this

You... said “size"...

what does it mean?

Size is what fits on your body:

big size, small size,

size 5, size 36...

That’s the way people say it in Saigon.

How long did you live in Saigon?

Why didn't you stay there?

It wasn’t easy

You can't understand.

If i weren’t ruined

I wouldn’t have had to move here.

Wandering from one ricefield to another-.

I’m happier this way.

Will your dad be back for dinner?

He might have eaten at Ms. Chin's.

What a strange man.

Why are you sad?

It will be the same with other women.

You're not asleep yet Dien?

I can’t sleep.

Why don’t you go outside?

What for?

I’m bored...

Of what?

Bored...

bored of...

Everything.

Of me too?

My God,

I love you so much,

how could I be bored with you.

Oh Dien,

Dien,

Dien

What are you doing?

Dien

What's going on?

Nothing

Sister,

look over there.

Oh, who's there?

I’m going to stay with your Dad this season.

Is that okay with you?

I’ve sent my two sons to my mother’s.

Now I only have you two.

Our life is very hard,

I don’t think you can stand it.

I’ve raised ducks my

I built my house

from the money I made from ducks

But it was also because of ducks that... my husband left me.

Who is she?

Mr. Vo,

you said you only had two children...

This woman?

Yeah, she follows me around, just like you.

But she came first...

That’s it.

So...

You don’t want to come with me anymore?

Dien..

throw her bag up for her,

Get a move on.

Oh... Dien

Dien...

Why do you want to leave him?

I need no one to follow me.

Ah

Go, all of you go away.

You’re crazy

- Move. - Enough of your cruelty!

If you continue like this you’d better watch out!

All over Lac Dia ricefields.

many duck raisers avoid the quarantine officials

their herds aren't being vaccinated for H5N1.

Along the canal,

dead ducks are being thrown into the water,

so we are threatened not only with pollution,

but also the spread of the outbreak.

What's that, honey?

Sounds like something coming from the loudspeaker.

Do you hear?

It might be about the quarantine.

Please understand, we have to fulfill our duty.

Oh Dien!

Oh Dien!

QUARANTINE

Dien..

Excuse me.

Have you seen a crying kid running by?

How old is he?

He's small

bur he is 16 already...

Have you seen him?

Please, ask those people over there.

I asked

Then he may not have been arrested, Miss.

Ah... ah...

let me come with you to the quarantine area...

Let’s go.

Have you seen my younger brother?

Who is as tall as me pass by?

Have you seen my younger brother... he is this tall...

No... we haven’t...

Have you seen a duckrearer who is as tall as me...

No... we haven’t...

Mr. Bay... Mr. Bay...

Dien

Get on my cart...

Get on... Miss... get on.

Oh Dien...

They’ve caught and killed them all, haven’t they?

Caught them all.

An buried them.

Even the ducklings.

Where is Dien?

But where is Dien?

I don’t know.

I have been looking everywhere...

I have no idea where is he.

I don’t know.

Ducks...

Dien is back...

I looked all over for you..

What were you worried about?

No one ran do anything against me.

Whose clothes are these?

Suong bough them.

Dressed like that,

you look exactly like Mom.

When Dad comes back,

he’ll be sad and then he’ll find an excuse to beat you.

I don’t care.

I am not afraid of him anymore.

The worst thing is that I could die.

But we should feel sorry for him

Well, he’s coming,

so change quickly and let’s go.

If the quarantine guys come, we’re finished.

This boat belongs to the guy with the slingshot.

His ducks were raised in the ricefield and weren't vaccinated, Ba.

Well,

give him a lesson.

Without seeing the coffin, one can’t see tears.

So... Ba will pretend to be the quarantine guy

and chase all his ducks away,

then he’ll end up poisoning himself.

Why are these ducks here... hey?

Huh?

That’s it,

nowhere to escape.

How nice that girl is.

Everywhere, people have all buried their duck .

Your ducks are not vaccinated.

You think you can hide here, that you can escape?

Let me deal...

I warn you...

don’t try to go against your fate.

Dear brothers,

please have pity,

you want us to starve?

The orders come from our superiors,

we can’t disobey them.

Yes, you don’t disobey anyone.

Look, have pity on me,

please pretend that you haven’t seen our ducks..

We have only some dozen ducks.

it's so few

in comparison with the thousands of others.

So you have agreed.

Please go home.

I’ll bring in a couple of female clucks

to have with your drink.

I have high regard for your wife.

I’m used to it...

I’ll do it to show my gratitude

for what Dad and you did for me.

Dien...

The quarantine guys passed by our tent...

they said they wanted to confiscate all the ducks.

Suong...

had to go with them.

What for?

To save the ducks.

What!

Damned bastards!

Pretty good, huh?

They might think that you’re are my wife,

they’d enjoy that a lot, right?

Let those dogs think so.

I’ve got nothing to lose.

Nothing...

Are you leaving us, Suong?

Where is Dien?

I don’t know.

I can't stay here anymore.

Your mother was cruel one time,

but your father is ten times more cruel than her.

So cruel.

how can we live with that?

Where is she?

She left.

Where is she going?

Over there.

She probably left forever.

Take the ducks home, we’ll have some blood pudding...

Mr. Vo’s wife is so nice.

Boss, you did good.

You know, I am Big Ba!

Ah... oh dear...

Ah... damn, it stings

What’s wrong, boss?

Uh... there he is...

Catch him...

Ah...

Be quick... catch him

Uh... shit... the pain.

At night, when I suddenly wake up,

I miss Dien and Suong so much.

I miss Dien, as one misses a soulmate

his way of talking, of understanding one's thoughts,

miss someone who can listen to my heart's voice,

someone to protect me as...

..dad and mom should have done.

I am grateful to Dien, even if he has left us for her.

he has left a gift for me.

It may seem perhaps a small thing,

but a child like myself who had no parental affection...

will always feel touched when I think about it.

The feeling of missing them trembles in my heart

as the most beautiful season of the year arrives,

and the rice is ripening...

my daughter

keep this...

for your wedding some day.

If you had. been like this for the past seven years,

our family might not be broken.

I want some ducks to eat with my drink, old man.

Where do you guys come from?

Damn you, from heaven, get it?

You bring ducks here

and don’t know who we are?

We're going to take some ducks to barbecue,

what are you angry about?

Hey, don’t take our ducks!

Damn you old man!

Son of a bitch, do you dare come closer?

Let me go.

Dad...

release...

Ow-you stupid old man!

Be quick...

drag him here.

Dad..

Dad... help me!

Push. Raise the old man head up make him watch.

Hold his head up!

Let me go...

Turn the old man’s head this way...

damn the old man.

Let me go...

Daddy,

Let me go..

Daddy

Hold tight...

Murderers

Nuong!

Nuong...

Dad...

Nuong...

Oh God... oh...

Nowadays, Dad and I have stopped wandering

We quit being duck-raisers

and settle down in a small village

Everyday Dad can bring the kids to school by boat

and I can see him smile.

I will name the child Thuong

He is fatherless

but surely he will go to school,

he will be cheerful, joyful in all his life

since he will taught by his mother

that children must know how to forgive the mistakes that adults make.
