Plot Summary for The Family from Vietnam: As 1975 begins, Vietnam is a divided country. The North, with its capital in Hanoi, is a communist country under the leadership of Ho Chi Minh. The South, with its capital in Saigon, is supported by the United States. At the end of April 1975, Saigon is about to fall to the Communists. The Nguyen family, Mai and Set and their three children, need to escape because their uncle has worked for the Americans. They manage to escape by helicopter from the roof of the U.S. Embassy, but they are separated. Mai and two children are sent to Guam, while Set and their son Vinh are sent to the Philippines where Vinh becomes sick and dies. Mai with her two children are sent to a refugee camp, Fort Indiantown Gap, in Pennsylvania. At the same time, Set is living with a sponsor family in California. Separated by 2,500 miles, Mai and Set begin to adapt to American culture. After many months, Set learns that his family is in Pennsylvania. He hitchhikes across the country, and at last they are re-united. They and their children go on to live very successful lives.
