On June 22, the Vietnamese Embassy in Italy coordinated with the 18th Asian Film Festival to organize "Vietnam Day," within the framework of the festival, which will take place from June 17 to 23, 2021 at the Farnese cinema, the capital city of Rome.

The event in turn brought four films "Bac kim thang" (English title: "Home sweet home," 2019), "Tiec trang mau" ("Blood moon party," 2020), "Rom" ("Rom," 2019) and “Bo gia” (“Dad, I’m sorry,” 2021).

Among the films mentioned above, "Bac kim thang" by director Tran Huu Tan is among the few domestic horror films. The film revolves around the story of an unhappy family, where the "true" grandson is much more loved, so many conflicts arise. The title "Home sweet home" with the idea that home is a happy place, is actually ironic when the film's message is: Family is not always a place to return to.

Apart from "Home sweet home," Blood Moon Party," "Dad, I'm Sorry" and "Rom" - prominent representatives of Vietnamese cinema in 2020 will appear on the Vietnamese film screening day for the audience of the Italian Asian Film Festival this year.
