The Girl from Yesterday

Young love is alive and butt-kicking for class-clown Thu and his classmates when the alluring Viet An appears from out of his lush daydreams and into his high school classroom. Normally too cool to care, Thu can’t seem to get the right words out when he tries to confess his feelings to Viet An or simply ask her out on a date. Viet An, on the other hand, is in complete control of their relationship as she playfully torments Thu to the brink of a complete breakdown. At the same time, Thu can’t help but reflect on the memories of his childhood friend and first love, in the hopes of learning from the girl from yesterday something to properly express his love to the girl of the present.
