This film depicts three love stories set against the backdrop of Vietnamese landscapes: In spring, a rural girl named Xin is hired by a wealthy family to pick white lotus flowers. Every day, admiring the view of the lotus pond, she hums folk songs with other female workers. Her singing attracts Mr. Du, who suffers from leprosy. While she copies poems for him, they develop a friendship despite their age difference; In the dry season, a cyclo driver named Hai coincidentally meets a prostitute named Lien. She often describes the luxurious life in five-star hotels, but he only longs for her. Gradually, their relationship undergoes subtle changes; In the rainy season, Vietnam War veteran James (played by Harvey Keitel) encounters a street vendor named Woody in a bar and discovers a lighter from the Vietnam War among Woody's goods. James confides in Woody about the pain of being separated from his wife and daughter. Afterward, both characters experience emotional growth...
