Heaven and Earth.

Summary: Oliver Stone brings an epic tale of courage, devastation and survival to the screen with his recounting of a Vietnamese woman's experience of war and peace in her native land and in America. Inspired by Le Ly Heyslip's autobiographical memoirs, this epic film covering 20 years tells of the courageous and dramatic life of a Vietnamese woman born in 1949 who endured war and persecution before beginning a challenging new life in the US. Spanning three wars, Heaven and Earth is a drama that is intensely personal and spiritual. Le Ly's story climaxes in her emotional return in 1986 to the country of her birth, where she attempts to reconcile both her past and her future.
