The humid, thick air of Saigon in 1975 sticks to every surface inside Dreamland. Through the haze of cigarette smoke and the sidelong glances of women like Gigi and Mimi, you recognize a familiar figure. Chris, the Embassy driver, stands locked in a tense, low-voiced argument with his friend John. The air crackles with frustration as John forces a bundle of cash into Chris’s hand, then turns and storms off, leaving Chris alone with his deepening disillusionment.
