Narrado por: Virtual Voice

1981, Vietnam, and the War is over. Yet for many men who served in the ARVN, as well as their families, the horror has worsened. Left to starve, prevented from holding down jobs, they have just one option if they are to survive. To leave the country. To escape the ruthless, iron hand of communist oppression and lust for revenge.

Former American soldier Benjamin Franklin Smith returned to Saigon to search for the daughter whose existence he knew nothing about until after the death of her mother, Tuan Le, the girl he planned to marry. When his money runs low he starts a business tracing missing persons. In the new ‘liberated’ Vietnam there is no shortage of missing persons. No shortage of people searching for them. And no shortage of cops and bureaucrats pulling every obstacle in their way. Yet he has made a promise. To find her and take her home to the US of A. He intends to keep that promise.

He made another promise. This time to an ARVN Ranger who once saved his unit from being wiped out by a much larger force of Vietcong. He owes him his life, and his promise is to one day return the favor. The man’s squad has been held in an underground cell in Hanoi since the war ended and is now threatened with a cruel, public execution. Another promise he intends to keep.

The execution is about to take place, so there is no time to waste. He must travel to Hanoi, a long, difficult, and dangerous journey, and get him and his men out. An even longer, more dangerous journey to get them to the South. To join their families and get them out of the country.

Pursued by the relentless Saigon Public Security, led by a sadist seeking vengeance for the past, he fights against seemingly impossible odds. Step by step, meter by meter, they edge closer to their destination. Saigon. To reunite the POWs with the many members of their families and achieve the ultimate goal and get them all out of the country.
