Set amidst hypnotic, watery landscapes of San Francisco Bay Area's salt ponds, a father and daughter are challenged to connect. Shed, a Vietnam vet working the salt ponds of the south bay area and fighting demons of the past, is visited by the daughter he left behind in Vietnam years before when the American troops retreated. Minh is an outcast in her own homeland and has come to America to find her father. She ignites dormant emotional fires and the two of them begin a parallel search for ethnic identity and personal belonging in contrast to the growing affluence of Silicon Valley. The film is shot in 35mm film and has an award-winning jazz and R&B soundtrack.
