BEYOND A WAR
Synopsis
Beyond a War is a documentary capturing the poignant reunion and compelling portraits of Dr. Jack Hawkins, Chancellor of Troy University (USA), and Dr. Le Cong Co, Chairman of the Board of Duy Tan University (Vietnam). Over fifty years ago, they stood on opposite sides of the Vietnam War - Hawkins as a U.S. Marine platoon leader, and Le Cong Co as a Viet Cong fighter. Today, they lead two prominent universities and are working together to build a brighter future for students in both the United States and Vietnam. The film recounts their personal stories of war and survival, and their joint efforts to promote peace through education and international cooperation. It is not only a story of two individuals, but also a story that bridges two nations.
