You may have let the intoxicatingly beauty cloud your rational senses.
It is a subtle exploration of the bonds of family and a very explicit examination of modern day familial ties, marriage, and also the relationship of art and experience. Equally, it is about
the subterranean effect which Buddhism has on Vietnamese daily life and how the modern (Lou Reed's songs which play in the awakening scenes) intersect and coordinate with the old (tai chi).
It's almost as incisive a view of Vietnamese sexual mores as "Last Tango" is of French and Western.
