Each episode, approximately 15 minutes long, consists of two parts: Preserving Time and Keeping the Flow of Heritage. The program takes viewers on a journey to learn about and explore everything from tangible and intangible cultural heritage to natural heritage. Some heritage sites have been recognized by organizations, while others are present in the lives of people in the Mekong Delta and Can Tho.
The story of heritage is explored in depth, encompassing not only knowledge but also the very breath of life. Take the example of the Thuy Tuyet Bamboo and Rattan Weaving Cooperative in Thuan Hoa commune, Can Tho city. This cooperative boasts a vibrant and rustic cultural space dedicated to the craft of weaving and the journey of preserving the Khmer community's culture. Ms. Truong Thi Bach Thuy (pictured), Director of the Thuy Tuyet Bamboo and Rattan Weaving Cooperative, along with her colleagues, has revived the traditional craft village. From scattered households engaged in the craft, Ms. Bach Thuy gathered people to establish the cooperative, becoming a common home for over 30 members and standardizing bamboo and rattan products. Currently, the cooperative has over 700 product designs for household items, decorations, gifts, etc., many of which have been exported to markets such as the United States, Thailand, and Switzerland.
The journey of preserving and enhancing the value of bamboo by the Thuy Tuyet Bamboo and Rattan Weaving Cooperative not only creates livelihoods for the local community but also preserves and protects a cultural space rich in identity. In "Preserving the Source of Heritage," the cooperative's story continues with creativity, combining it with community tourism, allowing visitors to touch the depth of local culture. Here, visitors can learn about the craft village, learn the craft, experience the culinary culture, and enjoy the dances of the Khmer people...
With "The Flow of Heritage," the story is told in harmony with the rhythm of life. Like the journey of preserving the craft by the family of Meritorious Artisan Le Thanh Quy (Chin Quy), considered a "remarkable figure" along the Nga Bay River. Mr. Chin Quy is not only passionate about traditional Vietnamese folk music but also possesses a unique collection of instruments. Nearly 50 instruments were all created and refurbished by him using readily available materials around his house or seemingly discarded scraps. These instruments are not only uniquely shaped but also practical, creating a new nuance for the instrument, and are named: the four-stringed zither, the three-stringed zither, the five-stringed zither... The instruments are refurbished, but the pitch and timbre remain the same. Mr. Chin Quy's passion also spreads to his son, Le Thanh Nhan, who teaches the instrument and passes on his skills to young people amidst modern life.
In "The Flow of Heritage," enduring vitality is not only found in the stories of preservation but also in the continuity, from one generation to the next, spreading throughout the community to preserve and promote heritage. Like the journeys of preserving traditional crafts, floating markets, or heritage trees... Each story is told vividly, with the multifaceted perspectives of many individuals and communities.
"The Flow of Heritage" is a meaningful program that not only provides information about heritage but also offers an emotional journey about people who cherish traditional values and nature.
