## Description

After many years of absence, the "Gió Mới" (New Wind) drama troupe returns to the stage with a new production. Hà and Hùng, former lovers, are cast as the lead actors. The friction between art, the collective, and personal emotions during the decline of Northern Vietnamese theater in the 1990s forces these artists to grapple with the changing times.
