OKLAHOMA CITY — On Saturday, October 10, from 1 to 3:30 p.m., the Oklahoma History Center Museum, in partnership with the Vietnamese American Heritage Community of Oklahoma, will screen the film “Year of the Cat.”
“Year of the Cat” follows filmmaker Tony Nguyen on an extraordinary quest to solve the mystery of his father, lost in the chaos of the Fall of Saigon 50 years ago. Crafted as an investigative home movie, this intensely raw documentary weaves together moments of humor and heartache, offering an intimate look at how the children of refugees are shaped by war and loss. As Tony delves into his family’s history, the film reveals the emotional toll we pay to confront the past and the possibility of healing as we reclaim and transform our futures.
Nguyen will speak and take questions from the audience after the screening. The screening is free and open to the public, but museum admission is required to visit the galleries.
This film will be shown in conjunction with the “Our Journeys” traveling exhibit, presented by Vietnamese Boat People. This multimedia traveling exhibition will be on display at the Oklahoma History Center Museum through January 4, 2027.
The Oklahoma History Center Museum is located at 800 Nazih Zuhdi Dr. in Oklahoma City.
