ReelAid: Helping Others Help Others
ReelAid and Paul Dano Forge A Journey Home
Sahaya Int’l and Reelaid.org have teamed together once again to produce A Journey Home, a film about fate, reconciliation and courage.
The project is narrated by Golden Globe nominee, Paul Dano (The Batman, The Fablemans) and chronicles the courageous efforts of the Sahaya Vietnam Non-Profit team, led by unlikely heroes as they build micro-homes for hundreds of rural families who would otherwise struggle without shelter, basic hygiene and the ability to fend off of disease. They also educate the children of the community.
Forced to flee Vietnam as a child, Chung Truong went on to create a beautiful life and family in the US. But as career and family was settling in, an emptiness overtook him, eventually leading him back to the country he barely remembered but ran deep in his blood. There, with a band of courageous nuns and some unlikely, tough-as-nails volunteers, he built a house for an impoverished family. Then another. Soon there were hundreds... Schools would follow. But the best was yet to come.
