Wow. This short film sent shock wave thru my system. Nice job LUCKY CHA. I wouldn't be surprised if most hmong today are the recarnation of the old hmong soldiers who had died during the war. On another note, i feel this movie.
Glad to see the end project! I am glad to have been part of this project as a director of this project. Filming was fun and hope to work with you in the near future again!
Watching this short film should remind Hmong People to always HMOOB HLUB HMOOB. The story line made me mad and sad for what the Hmong people went through. Thanks for the upload, please finish the full story and I'll be the first to support.
If we ever get funded the director and I would love too. But with the budget and time that we had this was the best we could do. We had to work around the actors schedule and we went through a few different actors. But it's something to look forward too in the future if we receive funding. There's so much I wanted to go into detail with and background of the characters, but it goes back to time and money.
My other title in mind was "Reborn Hmong", but I thought it was too cheesy and that it'll give away the the twist/ending. I like the "Born Hmong" because Hmong means free and when he was reincarnated again he basically was Born Free yet again.
I love the movie, but one thing is that there is too many fading ins and fading out. Overall it's really really good. Have to make my parents watch this ^-^
I really like the story line, I watch a lot of movies and have the same interest similar to your story. Yes I am doing one, maybe shoot by this summer when the rice field is nice and pretty. :)
The story line is great but the acting from the beginning (the boy, his parents and the older lady) and narrative is not so great. It doesn't seem natural. Also the narrative needs to be more fluent in Hmong. There is area for improvement. However, keep up the great work.
Eric Xiong I've had that instrumental for a few years now. I had permission from the producer/composer on soundclick.com to use the instrumental. It's the same for all the other songs as well I had to get permission to use it or comply through youtube licensing. The short film was filmed in Kansas.
Shots are alright, but they would be far more forgiven if the audio was professional. I suggest getting a shotgun mic and having a sound operator on the next project. Kudos.
May you please help give me input on my dreams,I had a dream a while back,when I was still with my ex baby's mother,she is Hmong,me too,but barely speaks hmoob,well after we both had our baby girl, I've had this dream,when I barely think about death,well god gave me this dream,but never saw the faces of two, because I was too afraid of death,but it was a female and a loving child, dressed in hmoob clothing's,all I remember was a glimpse of them,I didn't try hard enough to see there faces,but the girl is holding the childs hand and we're in front of the apartment that I was living at with my ex baby mother,I couldn't remember why or how the dreams came to be,but they did mentioned my name,and wanted me to go with them,is that bad or good?
I would say it's bad bc if they said they want to take you with them you wouldn't never come back anymore bc when you dream like that they want to take you with them so that's very bad
this is good but the acting people in there dont speak fluently hmong... so find people who are fluent in hmong to act so it is better... other than that you had good story line already...
+Asiane Yang Can't afford actors with the budget I had. Everyone in here were just friends and family who took their time out of their busy schedule to help me out.
I remember this film. It was showed at a film festival. Nice story line and actors brother.
I loved this short film! A man shouldn't have to cry, but i cried to this. This is strong film.
Wow. This short film sent shock wave thru my system. Nice job LUCKY CHA.

Awwww. I got emotional watching this. Storyline was great! Saib mas yeej ua yus tu siab rau hmoob lub neej yav tag los.
Glad to see the end project! I am glad to have been part of this project as a director of this project. Filming was fun and hope to work with you in the near future again!
Thank you for sharing! I didn't expect it but tears were just rolling down my eyes! Such a bitter sweet moment!
These short films are better than those they sold at hmong new year!!!

I loved it ! Got teary eyed. You should definitely make this into a full movie.
If we ever get funded the director and I would love too. But with the budget and time that we had this was the best we could do. We had to work around the actors schedule and we went through a few different actors. But it's something to look forward too in the future if we receive funding.

Love it! The story line, the actor/actresses, EVERYTHING! :) Phenomenal job!
Keep up the good work guys. You guys should make a Hmong American movie.
Nice project. Love it.

This is a good Hmong Movie us about Hmong Life in Laos fighting in the War and Born Hmong is the Story of Hmong people life
Great video!! Keep up the AWSOME pieces of work:)
Good video!! Got me all teary.. keep it up.

Beautiful story. Loved it. I hope to see more short films soon from you! :)

คลิปนี้ทำให้อยากร้องไห้ คิดถึงคนๆหนึ่งที่ สปป.ลาวมากๆ
Awesome short film! Make a full movie you guys have time. Im pretty sure reincarnation is real. It's sad and happy. Good job. Keep it up.
Great short film keep it coming!!
I thought everyone did a great job. Keep up the great work. hater, gonna hate. I look forward to see more.
I like the cinematography.
I cried.. it was beautiful. great job. And its like 2:58 am hahaha.
Good job on this short film!
the plotline was intresting and it amazing keep up the good work
This made me cry....
I think the title of this beautiful short film should be "Reincarnation" or something along that line. However, keep up with the awesome work!
My other title in mind was "Reborn Hmong", but I thought it was too cheesy and that it'll give away the the twist/ending. I like the "Born Hmong" because Hmong means free and when he was reincarnated again he basically was Born Free yet again.
So cute and so sad. I like it this.
The story line is very good. Acting is good too. But the speaking needs more work on. Keep up the good work!
Can you make this story to full movie?
It's possible, but it takes time and a budget. Not everyone's schedule is the same these people are just friends and family.
7:42 song?
I love the movie, but one thing is that there is too many fading ins and fading out. Overall it's really really good. Have to make my parents watch this ^-^
Great film!
Great job ! I enjoy it
Nice script, Jacob... I have similar story I have in mind.
Thanks, you planning to do a similar story as well?
I really like the story line, I watch a lot of movies and have the same interest similar to your story. Yes I am doing one, maybe shoot by this summer when the rice field is nice and pretty. :)
Loved it! Good job!
Zoo Heev Li! 😭😍
Good story.
tu siab kawg vim peb hmoob hais lus zoo li mab daum hais lus hmoob lawm xwb.
hais lus hmoob tsis meej li lawm. tus siab, tu siab.

great job
omg lol nice movie short film I know everyone there hehe great job :)
Great job!!
The lil boy is so cute
Zoo heev
What was the song call when the soldiers starts shooting at the Hmong I've been trying to find it ever since I saw the trailer?
Sindustry- You all along
***** Hmm I try looking it up but I can't seem to find it? also where was this film j/s
Eric Xiong I've had that instrumental for a few years now. I had permission from the producer/composer on soundclick.com to use the instrumental. It's the same for all the other songs as well I had to get permission to use it or comply through youtube licensing. The short film was filmed in Kansas.
Oh I see thanks.
who knows what the credit song is? thank you
Love it. Keep it up!!!
what's the name of the song starts at14:47
yog muaj ib yog kv tu kheej muaj txoj hmoo kv yuav muaj ib zaj kheej kwv coj Los ua yeeb yam li no thiab os
not bad. just needs to smoothen the dialogues. keep it up.
What's the name of the song?
Asiangyrl1 not sure which one you're looking for, but the ending credit should tell you.
This is a good film but I felt kind of awkward with the little boy and the old lady.
Shots are alright, but they would be far more forgiven if the audio was professional. I suggest getting a shotgun mic and having a sound operator on the next project. Kudos.

It's just a story people talk about when I was younger and I just made it into my version. I'm not a fortuneteller or dream seeker. Sorry.
I would say it's bad bc if they said they want to take you with them you wouldn't never come back anymore bc when you dream like that they want to take you with them so that's very bad
Your effects are excellent. Just working on your actors/actress, and how they talk. Your Hmong is very bad. Keep it up. I like your story already.
hahaha haha I like the last part I thought it was a real girl. ya got me. lol
if it's a HMONG movie why are they speaking ENGLISH?
The hmong dialog doesn't really make sense, could be improved. The story line is good though. Lol overall it's a good start. Keep up the good work.
why is a poor boy wearing a big gold necklace?
@8:46-8:48.. Have auto subtitles on, lol hehe
If it's a hmong short film, why not speak Hmong???
nvm I figured it out Lua siab tsis zoo lis
Born Hmong!
In the beginning I meant. Speak Hmong.
this is good but the acting people in there dont speak fluently hmong... so find people who are fluent in hmong to act so it is better... other than that you had good story line already...
Nice script but the acting can be better
Wow. You can totaly see their fake acting. Its right on their face. Its like they're reading a script. Look, their head doesn't even move.
good story but why such bad acting?
+Asiane Yang Can't afford actors with the budget I had. Everyone in here were just friends and family who took their time out of their busy schedule to help me out.
+JakobieHer in that case... yah understand. but most actors would do it for free don't they?
the lady that play the hmong old lady, her hmong is not that good. she has to pause to think of to say the correct words. it made it sound unnatural.
Speak in your own language of hmong because is better...
Eww I think Maryle sounds better. This girl hais Lus thais thais nplaig.
if u gonna speak green speak green...stop making greens speak white it just sound ridiculous
Its better than white trying to speak green
Jeanie Vang true, green hmong can pass off white hmong easy whereas white hmong sound ridiculous when they speak green
yusiah?😱😁😊😂
