Kim's Story - the Road from Vietnam
1997 • E7 May 11, 1997
If there was one photograph from the Vietnam War that touched the world, it was the one of a little girl running naked down a road after a napalm bombing raid. That girl was Kim. Though horrifically burned, she survived and, 25 years on, she tells the story of that raid, of her suffering and recovery, of the way the North Vietnamese used her as a propaganda weapon and of how she had to leave her home to find freedom. Now she travels to the US on a mission of forgiveness and reconciliation.
