Elsa Keslassy International Correspondent Strand Releasing has acquired North American rights to “Viet and Nam” which premiered at this year’s Cannes Film Festival in Un Certain Regard.

Directed by Truong Minh Quý, the film tells the passionate love story of two young coal miners who face separation and ultimately make sacrifices to stay together.

Represented in international markets by Pyramide International, “Viet and Nam” stars Pham Thanh Hai and Dao Duy Bao Dinh. “’Viet and Nam’ was one of the most mesmerizing films I’ve seen in awhile, romantic, tragic and tender directed with a unique style that embodies the auteurs we cultivate,” said Marcus Hu of Strand Releasing. “We are very happy that after its wonderful journey at Cannes in Un Certain Regard, VIET AND NAM can now meet the American audience.

We are also delighted to collaborate once again with Strand, one of our long-standing partners. We are confident that they will be the best ambassadors for Trương Minh Quýt and the film in North America” said Agathe Mauruc of Pyramide International who negotiated the deal with Jon Gerrans of Strand Releasing. “Viet and Nam” is set to screen at festivals in North America followed by a theatrical release in early 2025.
