Vietnam built its identity through a tumultuous history: colonization, wars, communism, free market. What is today Vietnam's choice for future, within the context of globalization and the threat for its environment? Tradition and modernity here seem to nurture each other and coexist without exclusion. It is the image of the lotus, the symbol for all aspects of Vietnamese society, which guides the audience throughout this exploration and search of what represents the soul of Vietnam. The lotus is the national emblem of Vietnam. Omnipresent in Vietnamese history and culture, it has embodied purity and beauty for thousands of years. Brought from India by the Buddhists, this sacred flower is the symbol of wisdom and awakening.
