Vietnam was a television war, with more than 80 journalists killed while covering the conflict. The film examines the ethical issues faced by a frontline journalist who is not an active combatant. It tells the story of Australian journalist Neil Davis, who spent 11 years in the combat zone, forming a deep attachment to the Vietnamese troops. Davis' close-up footage and recollections provide a testimony to the horrors of war. The film also shows a lesser-known side of the war, with Asians suffering at the hands of other Asians, and Davis' historic footage of the fall of Saigon.
