Standing Before the Sea tells about the conflicts between the new and the old as the country stands on the threshold of a great change. From the conflicts between children and adults between director Ba Duc (Truong Khoi) and chief accountant Chin Tam (Tra Giang), the film takes viewers back to a time when people dedicated to the country stood in front of them, making big choices and having to deal with the stagnation and obstacles of the old. The film by director Tran Phuong was produced in 1990 with the participation of actors Trong Khoi, Thuong Tin, and Tra Giang.
