In 1945, as many as two million people starved to death in one of the most fertile river deltas on Earth. Eighty years later, that same country ships rice to the world and moves on tens of millions of motorbikes. The Vietnam most of us picture ended in 1975, yet the average person living there today was born after it. This is the story of a 2,000-year-old civilization that has been conquered, burned, and rebuilt more times than almost any nation alive, from the rebellion of the Trung sisters to a cave so vast it grows its own jungle.

In this documentary, discover how Vietnam climbed from famine and isolation to one of the fastest-growing economies on the planet, why scientists confirmed a large mammal here that the world had never recorded as recently as the 1990s, and what its mountains, caves, and cities still hide.

Take a breath. Stay a while.
