TRINH Quang Minh - Synopsis
“The Graduation of Edison” is a beautiful, gentle, and slightly surreal tale set in a village where every child is born with a tree on their head. It’s a tradition in that village that when people turn 18, they will have a graduation day to signal their move into adulthood. On that day, each individual’s tree is cut from their head and planted in the ground. Our protagonist is Minh, a 10 year-old boy who has yet to grow a tree. In contrast is Minh's beautiful sister who is proud of her pretty tree. While he struggles to fit in, treeless as he is, she decides to keep her tree forever. That’s when trouble brews…
