The movie tells the story of a young, arrogant girl named Lan Ngoc in the 1960s.
She was born into a family of tailors who specialised in making ao dai (traditional long dress). She looked down on the career, but by some kind of miracle, travels to the future and meets herself a few decades later.
Ngoc witnesses the tragedy of her family’s trade in the future, which resulted from the fact that she had turned her back on the craft. She then realises the value of the traditional career and learns respect for the long dress.
The Tailor, which was awarded Best Feature Film at the Golden Kite Awards by the Vietnamese Cinema Association in 2017 and has been screened at various international film festivals, including the 22nd Busan International Film Festival in Busan, the Republic of Korea.
