Plot

Returning to his Vietnamese roots after nearly a decade in the United States, Van, the reluctant successor of an esteemed clan, finds his homecoming laced with layers of hidden truths and unspoken love. Accompanied by the vivacious Ian, a fellow Vietnamese-American, the duo's arrival sparks curiosity within the family, their relationship shrouded in ambiguity. As Van's widowed mother, Mrs. Hanh, nurtures dreams of her son embracing traditional roles of marriage and parenthood, her expectations clash with Van's hope to reveal his true self and his relationship with Ian. Amidst this emotional chaos, Van's grandmother, her mind clouded by dementia, innocently confuses Ian for her own grandson. As Van grapples to find the perfect moment to unveil his secret, he uncovers another - a grim revelation about Mrs. Hanh's health. A poignant tale of love, acceptance, and the bonds of family, Goodbye Mother is a journey through the labyrinth of cultural expectations and personal desires.
