Six free documentary films produced in the 1960s will be aired at a two-day Vietnam Documentary Film Festival in Hanoi, starting today to mark the country’s Communist Party’s anniversary, falling on February 3.

At the fest, the audience will have a chance to see six films namely “Images of late President Ho Chi Minh’s life”, “The South in My Heart”, “Ho Chi Minh – His Image”, “General Vo Nguyen Giap – one Century, one Human Life”, “Communist Soldiers”, and “From Ba waterfall to Son La hydroelectric plant”.

Also in the program, the filmmakers will have a Q&A session with the audience.

In other news, Ho Chi Minh City-based Idecaf will screen the film “Luon o ben con” (Always by your side), which won the Best Documentary award at the Vietnam International film festival in Hanoi last October.

Tickets costing VND15,000 (US$0.75) each are available at 28 Le Thanh Ton Street, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City.
