A compilation documentary telling the story of the integration of one Vietnamese family, which found its home in Central Europe. Combination of archive footage, private archives of Vietnamese families, and animation brings ironic and universal answers to the question what all one has to do to become a resident of a foreign country. The stories are told by the members of three generations: the generation who arrived in 1956 to strengthen socialist internationalism and stayed till the bitter end, the one who came in 1990s wishing to fulfil their European dream, and finally, the generation already born to this dream.
