Speaking about penning the script, the Vietnamese-American writer Eirene Tran Donohue said that she felt it was important to tell a story about life in Vietnam now. "One that was full of joy and love and celebration. I wanted to change the conversation about Vietnam, to highlight it as a modern thriving country whose stories are worthy of being told," she added.
