This is the most groundbreaking and daring work of the French-Chinese director Dai Sijie. Films that are banned from being filmed in China should be filmed entirely in Vietnam. Director Dai Sijie was inspired to make the film from an article he read in a Chinese newspaper, which wrote about two gay women who were put to death on suspicion of killing the father of one of them. . “Botanical Daughters” is a very beautiful, romantic and sad love story. The film tells the story of Ly Minh, an orphan girl who comes to study medicine at the house of a famous botanist, and An, the daughter of this authoritarian professor. An lived since childhood with a patriarchal and closed father, so he always yearned for someone to share. Only a short time, An and Minh were attached and secretly dating each other in the medicinal garden. When An's brother returned from the army and asked to marry Minh, this girl accepted the offer to be with An forever. However, on the wedding night, the truth was discovered that caused the whole family to fall into tragedy… In addition to the sad love story in the movie, "Botanist's Daughters" is also attractive with wonderful scenes. Beautiful scenes were filmed in beautiful places in Vietnam: Cuc Phuong national forest, Tam Coc cave (Ninh Binh), Ba Vi (Hanoi)…
