With his Award winning work, Vietnamese Memories, Clement Baloup chronicles - through vivid painted art and poetic storytelling - the fate of a handful of people who, like many of their peers, were condemned to leave a country successively occupied by the Japanese, the French and the Americans. After Leaving Saigon, Baloup explores a new story linked to his own, this time from a woman's perspective and focusing on those who lef for the U.S.A. over thirty years ago.
