Addressing the fate of Vietnamese guest workers in Taiwan, the documentary Mien Đat Hua (The Promised Land) provides the audiences with a prospect about the life of many Vietnamese undocumented workers in Taiwan. Being made within almost 2 years with great effort in observing, filming and approaching the characters, the documentary is expected to leave strong impression on the audience when it is broadcasted on VTV Special at the end of March.
As of November 2017, the number of Vietnamese workers working in Taiwan was over 200.000 people. Among them, according to Taiwan’s Immigration Agency, there are over 26.000 illegal workers from Vietnam, making up 50% of all the illegal laborers in Taiwan.
Why did these laborers have to leave their jobs? How are their lives going? How did they manage to get the legal papers with the help of Taiwanese? All these questions will be answered in this documentary.
Combining images shot in Taiwan with footages compiled from different sources, Mien Dat Hua (The Promised Land) also comprehensively reveals the condition of labor export in Taiwan, what they are and will be facing everyday.
