After getting dumped in los angeles, amanda (rachael cook) takes a trip to vietnam, kind of a work-cation. She meets anh and sinh, whose family owns a tour guide company. Amanda is there to evaluate it, without letting them know. Such beautiful scenery and locations, which probably everyone mentions in these reviews. Sinh (scott ly) is very professional and sweet. He shows her and the group the local customs, and culture, but tells her they won't have time to see every landmark on her list; his company offers a more relaxed, free flowing visit, based on how long the lines are at the various touristy stops. Sinh knows all the out of the way, beautiful spots, and the history and meaning behind them. This was a lot of fun to watch! Knowing little about vietnam prior to this, it really was a trip through a beautiful new country. The arc of the relationship between amanda and sinh was predictable, but it all works, and who doesn't like a good love story?? Directed by steven tsuchida. Looks like he has done a mix of television and films. Story by eirene donohue.
