As she navigates her mixed heritage, May's journey takes her from the protests in Berkeley to a remote village in China, where she confronts her past and meets her long-lost mother. This exploration leads to profound self-discovery and ultimately shapes her future, culminating in a pivotal moment during the fall of Saigon that forces her to define her own destiny.
