Go-Go Sisters

Go-Go Sisters follows the lives of six high school girls, from the days leading up to the events of the Fall of Saigon, to their lives as middle-aged women in present day Ho Chi Minh City. The girls, calling themselves the Wild Horses, protect each other when needed, fighting their rivals and sometimes each other. Despite that, they vow never to leave each other’s side, a promise made especially poignant when in present day, one of them discovers their former group leader is battling late-stage cancer. Rushing to bring the gang back together before it’s too late, we see flashbacks of the girls in resplendent vintage postcard colors, experiencing close friendship and first crushes amid bullying and student protests.
