The story of the film full of adventures about a great figure who lived a difficult childhood in the streets of Saigon and the slums. Events begin in her life around achieving a certain goal of reaching her dream. But what she will face on her way to reach her goal is very difficult but her will is strong. They are about to change everything. But the best is yet to come.
The real Noble accomplished a lot, but the movie insists on giving her achievements a mystical and mythical dimension ... without the imagination to carry it off.
It's like watching two films instead of one and the script resorts too often to a narrative shorthand, delivering 10-second scenes that seem to belong in a trailer.
[Her] Dickensian childhood provides real intrigue, but writer-director Stephen Bradley portrays the grown-up Noble as a messianic figure, making her philanthropy seem like acts of hubris rather than selflessness.
Although the script wavers on occasion overall the film works very well, it feels emotionally honest and is a fitting tribute to a woman it's impossible not to admire.
