In partnership with GETSEA – the Consortium of Centers for Southeast Asian Studies, the UO US-Vietnam Research Center and the Center for Asian and Pacific Studies will co-host a screening of the documentary film Vietnamerica.

Following the wars in Vietnam, over two million people fled to country with the collapse of the Republic of Vietnam. That exodus, referred to by many as “the boat people” resulted in nearly half dying while in flight, battling the elements, starvation, and pirates.

Vietnamerica follows Master Nguyen Hoa as he returns to former refugee camps in Southeast Asia after three decades abroad to search for the graves of his wife and two children. Having fled Vietnam in 1981 on a boat with his family and friends, Hoa was the only survivor.

Executive Producer Nancy Bui of the Vietnamese Heritage Foundation joins GETSEA and over 20 universities across North America to watch Vietnamerica together simultaneously and connect via Zoom for a discussion with the filmmaker about the Vietnamese diaspora, their struggle, and how Master Hoa’s story is a prism to see the larger group.

For more information on the film, visit http://vietnamericamovie.org. If you are interested in holding a screening on your campus, contact GETSEA Director of Communications, Chris Hulshof, at chulshof@wisc.edu.

In this information session, you’ll have the opportunity to learn tips for the Freeman Internship Fellowship application process, meet past Freeman recipients, and ask any questions you may have.
