Episode 4: Vietnamese Lessons

“I’M NOT TIRED, PER SE. BUT THERE ARE A FEW MOMENTS WHEN THERE’S THIS INNER VOICE SAYING ‘AGAIN? AGAIN?’ IT’S LIKE, WHENEVER…I’M MEETING SOMEONE IN PERSON AND THEY’RE SURPRISED THAT I SPEAK CZECH FLUENTLY, I’M THINKING, ‘UGH, THERE’S A LOT OF WORK AHEAD OF US STILL.’”

Two young Vietnamese immigrants open a window onto their lives as foreigners—and insiders—in the Czech Republic. Featuring Do Thu Trang and Dužan Duong.
