Tuấn Andrew Nguyễn’s film The Unburied Sounds of a Troubled Horizon (2022)
follows an artist named Nguyêt as she navigates the vestiges of
munitions and unexploded ordnance that continue to devastate the
landscape and lives of her extended family in Vietnam. As Nguyêt
transforms weaponry into magnificent sculpture and
prosthetics, Unburied Sounds considers
the force of these materials in expressing concepts related to
reincarnation, artistic impulse, historical perspective, and
reparation.
