Breakfast in Saigon

With Saigon surrounded, the CIA, Army, and South Vietnam's conflicted leadership waver between denial and panic, overwhelmed by the historic moment. As the Northern onslaught approaches, southern collaborators face a terrible fate as the Americans ready to leave. The bravery and insubordination of a few rogues will provide a tenuous and temporary lifeline, and demonstrate the sheer power of the human condition. BREAKFAST IN SAIGON is a political war drama rooted in painful authenticity. It is about America's last gasp in Vietnam, not the fight but the evacuation, and its terrible impact on America's name, its servicemen and their friends. Each character will have to decide what an American promise is worth. It's unforgivingly bleak but not without its redeeming forces of good and the altruistic actions of a few, counterbalancing the harrowing choices and pain that permeates the story. This is a storytelling world as real as it can be, textured by the blood, sweat, and tears of many that will ripple through history. It's dark, heartbreaking viewing, but like the most memorable tales of war, it's fuelled by the enduring power of the human will and the immense strength of the human condition.
