"Dust Child" weaves together two compelling timelines: in present-day America, a man haunted by his traumatic childhood as a "dust child"—one of the mixed-race children fathered by Black American servicemen and abandoned during the Vietnam War—embarks on a journey to Vietnam seeking answers about his past and the fate of his family: interwoven with this is the poignant story of a young Vietnamese woman during the war who makes a life-altering decision that has far-reaching consequences for generations to come, ultimately exploring themes of identity, displacement, the enduring legacy of war, and the search for belonging across continents and time.
