Vengeful Heart

In the mist‑clad hills of Da Lat, a young woman reborn through a heart transplant finds herself haunted by unsettling visions that drift like fog over her waking life. Linh drifts between the ordinary world of a celebratory vacation with her husband and a lingering, inexplicable pull toward an isolated countryside house that appears repeatedly in her nightmares. The film opens with a quiet, atmospheric tension, letting the audience feel the thin line between healing and the echo of another’s memories.

As Linh and Son follow the threads of her subconscious, they arrive at the remote homestead where a small, tightly‑knit family has gathered. There she meets Tam, a gentle yet guarded man, his mother Ms. Le, and the loyal friend Cu Hu. The setting is steeped in the soft rustle of pine trees and the low, reverent hum of a home still scented with grief, suggesting that the walls themselves remember what has been lost. The arrival of an outsider who carries a new heart creates an intimate dynamic, as the family’s quiet hospitality intertwines with a palpable sense of something unfinished.

Within the house’s dim corridors, Linh senses a lingering presence that seems both protective and pleading. Shadows flicker just beyond the edge of sight, and the air carries whispers of a story waiting to be spoken. The tone balances gentle melancholy with an undercurrent of supernatural unease, inviting curiosity about the connection between the donor’s life and the new pulse beating in Linh. The film’s mood is one of quiet dread and fragile hope, where every creak of floorboards and distant owl call feels like a clue.

As the days unfold, Linh and Son find themselves drawn deeper into the house’s quiet mysteries, their relationship tested by the subtle pressure of unseen forces. The story promises a delicate exploration of identity, memory, and the invisible threads that bind strangers together, all set against a richly atmospheric Vietnamese countryside that feels both beautiful and haunting.
