We Were the Scenery
Hoa Thi Le and Hue Nguyen Che fled the country on a small boat. They docked in the Philippines, where they were utilized as extras in the filming of “Apocalypse Now”.

In 1975, soon after the end of the Vietnam War, Hoa Thi Le and Hue Nguyen Che fled the country on a small boat. After nine days at sea, they docked in the Philippines, where they were held in a refugee camp. During this time, along with nearly 100 other refugees, they were utilized as background extras in the filming of “Apocalypse Now”.

Guided by their perspective and memories of their lived experiences, “We Were The Scenery” is a short documentary that traces Vietnam, The Philippines, and the USA within past and present, truth and fiction, life and cinema. Warning: This film contains stroboscopic effects.

Eisha and Seema were more than sisters, they were soul mates, and a joint diet offered a shared sense of purpose. But their carefree project pushed Eisha to the very brink of death.

“Hey, let’s go on a diet together.” As kids in a small Quebec town, Eisha and Seema were more than sisters, they were soul mates, and a joint diet offered a shared sense of purpose. But their carefree project would take a dark turn, pushing Eisha to the very brink of death.  Consumed by anorexia, she found herself battling her own fragile body—stranded between childhood and adulthood. Decades later, she revisits her past in an exquisitely crafted work of auto-ethnography, evoking her unusual youth with aching lyricism.
