Synopsis

A rags to riches story of unusual circumstance. ‘Huong Ga – Rise’ is the story of Dieu. Chronicling the highs and lows of Vietnam’s most notorious female gangsters, this is a woman’s journey as she breaks the glass ceiling in a man’s word, albeit, a much darker and dangerous existence. Shaded by the influence and lessons of the men in her life: Nhan her childhood sweetheart, her great unrequited love; Hung fifty shades of empty but a great physical attraction; Tung the man of her dreams, husband, lover and friend; and Tan – the gentle man who promises a simpler life. Each of the men in her life contribute to Dieu’s great success (and failures) as she climbs to the top of Vietnam’s gangster underworld.
