Only what the chapter says. The tree grows as new chapters arrive. Portraits are drawn from family photos where we have them; the rest are imagined.

A film with no video file
This chapter’s film is a small JavaScript program, like the chapters before it. It reuses the narrator’s courier cut-outs and jungle backdrops from the companion film 60 năm, with new scenes of the Party school. The sound effects are synthesised in the browser. The two recorded tracks are the narration, in his own cloned voice for Vietnamese, and the score.

Illustrations are an artistic re-imagining, not historical photographs. Names, dates and events come only from his memoir. The boy is drawn from the narrator’s courier sheets and bác Tín from his photo; chú Huy, chú Câu and the camp nurses are imagined from the text.
