The film is set in the winter-spring battle that lasted 60 days and nights from late 1946 to early 1947 in Hanoi, the story follows the militiaman Van Dan and his love story with the piano-loving lady Thuc Huong. When others had evacuated to the war zone, they decided to defend the capital that had been devastated by bombs and bullets, despite the dangers that awaited them.
The film revolves around iconic musician Trịnh Công Sơn and the muses that have come and gone in his life, from his passionate youth in the 1960s to his later middle-aged 1990s.
In 1954, Thanh, an architect, returns to live in the family house he resided in before the war. He suggests that Quy, a comrade from his regiment and his wife, Hue, share the villa which is too big for just him. Cohabitation problems soon arise and challenge the friendship forged by the two men in a completely different context. As the days pass, the relation between Thanh and Hue is also strengthened, although they first reject the obvious feelings they have for each other. Between a ruined friendship and an ever more sincere love for Hue, Thanh seems always more torn.
