Saigon & the Mekong Delta

Over New Year 2014, I went to Saigon and Ben Tre in the Mekong Delta. This film is a snapshot of streetlife for the people who live there.

I tried my best to capture as many of the things that I saw and experienced as possible - the environment; the sounds; the hustle & bustle; the food; the celebrations; the street vendors; the traffic; the shacks & houses, the urgency of some to earn enough money simply to scrape a living, contrasted sharply with the lethargy of others who just seem to observe the world with an inner tranquility and feeling of detachment.

Many thanks to Martin and Trinh for making my trip possible.
