  Portraying the Vietnamese immigrant experience through Kieu, A Tale of Love follows the quest of a woman in love with Love.

  In a future where emotion and desire have been wiped away by an unshakable new narcotic, society exists simply to provide a constant source of the drug.

Genetically engineered to be immune to the drug, Miles' strange charisma draws Claire to him, but when he brutally guns down a group of harmless dissidents...
