Description

Henry Golding (CRAZY RICH ASIANS) stars as Kit, an exploratory soul returning to modern Vietnam for the first time since his family emigrated during his childhood. As Kit navigates reacclimatizing to a country in which he cannot speak the language and a culture he now barely recalls or recognizes, he connects with the charming Lewis (Parker Sawyers, P-VALLEY), striking up a steamy if potentially fleeting romance. MONSOON is a romantic and lusciously lensed travelogue that speaks to the legacy of ancestry while honoring the significance of rediscovering one's own roots and homeland.
