Abstract
Destiny is documentary that revolves around three young Vietnamese women who hope to marry Singaporean men. Shot in Dong Thap and Can Tho provinces of Southern Vietnam, as well as Ho Chi Minh City, the film demonstrates the idealised vision these women harbour of starting life anew in Singapore. Each woman reveals her inner hopes, fears and aspirations, and how marrying a Singaporean husband can help improve her own and their families’ standards of living. Despite having to leave their families and give up on their education, these women are willing to make these sacrifices to improve their family’s financial circumstances.
