Breathe In/Breathe Out

Screening on Film

Directed by Beth B.
US/Vietnam, 2000, 35mm, color, 70 min.

The generation gap is difficult enough to bridge on its own—add a father's service in Vietnam and the gap gets even wider. Following three veterans and their grown children back to the land where they witnessed incredible carnage as soldiers, director Beth B investigates "what we pass on from one generation to the next" in the hope that the experience will help both fathers and children come to grips with the war and each other. In doing so, she provides proof that the trauma of war does not end when peace begins.
