In an old house in Hanoi, Bi, a 6-year-old child lives with his parents, his aunt and their cook. His favorite playgrounds are an ice factory and the wild grass along the river. After being absent for years, his grandfather, seriously ill, reappears and settles at their house. While Bi gets closer to his grandfather, his father tries to avoid any contact with his family. Every night, he gets drunk and goes and see his masseuse, for whom he feels a quiet strong desire. Bi's mother turns a blind eye on it. The aunt, still single, meets a 16-year-old young boy in the bus. Her attraction to him moves her deeply.

IMDB

This autobiographical adult tale about childhood centers around life in a dysfunctional family, as seen through the eyes of six-year-old Bi. The boy lives with his parents, his aunt, and a maid in a stifling old house in Hanoi. His parents’ relationship is getting worse, and his 30-year-old sexually repressed aunt (a high school teacher) has never touched a man. Bi entertains himself under the watchful eye of the maid. His grandfather, a retired diplomat, comes home with a serious illness. At first afraid of this stranger, the child’s curiosity gradually brings him closer to the sick man. Bi’s father, whose only thought is to bed his masseuse, escapes in alcohol and avoids the old man. Meanwhile, his aunt has sexual fantasies about a 16-year-old she met on the school bus. Left to his own devices, Bi escapes to the tall grasses by the river’s edge and the cool ice factory next door. In the stifling heat, ice turns out to be the only tangible connection between family members.
