"Homeland in My Heart" - an unprecedented film and a special milestone at the University of Social Sciences and Humanities.

"Homeland in our hearts" - a special mark at the University of Social Sciences and Humanities.

In the cultural and spiritual life of contemporary society, it is rare to find works of art that both create a powerful ripple effect in the community and open up new approaches to educating people about ideology, ideals, and patriotism. "Homeland in My Heart: The Concert Film" —a film directed by the Nhan Dan Newspaper and co-produced with Sun Bright Creative Arts and Events Joint Stock Company—is such a special case.

At the film screening held at 6 PM on December 15, 2025, in the auditorium on the 8th floor of building E, University of Social Sciences and Humanities (USSH), the artistic and emotional atmosphere of " Homeland in My Heart: The Concert Film " touched the hearts of hundreds of students, lecturers, and film lovers.

In particular, the assessment of the School's Principal, Professor Dr. Hoang Anh Tuan, became a key highlight, as he evaluated this as an "unprecedented" work - not only because of its scale or form of expression, but also because of how the film successfully connects journalism, art, history, and contemporary emotions, creating an unprecedented model for conveying cultural and ideological values.

A work of unparalleled artistry in the storytelling of the homeland.

What makes "Homeland in My Heart" unprecedented lies primarily in its storytelling approach to the homeland. Instead of opting for traditional interpretations, the film utilizes the language of concerts, cinema, and modern music, bringing history, national spirit, and patriotism to the public with genuine, direct, and deeply moving emotions.

There, the homeland does not appear as an abstract concept or a distant symbol, but comes alive through every melody, every frame, every moment the audience joins in, places their hands on their hearts, and listens together. It is this approach that helps the film bridge the gap between history and the present, between the fundamental values of the nation and the spiritual life of today's young generation.

The pioneering role of Nhan Dan Newspaper in creating cultural products.

"Homeland in My Heart" is not just a film, but a clear testament to the cultural mission of revolutionary journalism in the new era. The fact that a leading national media agency proactively directed and organized the dissemination of a large-scale cultural product demonstrates innovative thinking, creativity, and a strategic vision in building Vietnam's cultural soft power.

The film demonstrated that journalism is not limited to its role of information and propaganda, but can also become a creative force in culture, connecting artistic resources, the creative industry, and the community to create lasting values. This is a highly commendable direction, especially in the context of Vietnam's increasingly deep integration with the world, which demands cultural products that both reflect national identity and can reach young audiences in a global language.

When patriotic education touches the hearts of young people.

The screening of "Homeland in My Heart: The Concert Film" at the University of Social Sciences and Humanities holds special significance. This is a center for training and research in the social sciences and humanities – the cradle of critical thinking, cultural studies, history, and humanities. This space has fostered a profound dialogue between art and academia, between emotion and rational thought.

The screening was not only a cultural activity but also a comprehensive educational experience, where students could directly perceive how history and national spirit can be retold through new and creative forms. This contributed to broadening students' understanding of the relationship between culture, art, and social responsibility – a particularly important aspect of training in the social sciences and humanities.

In the auditorium, the sight of students singing together, listening together, and being moved together demonstrated the power of experiential education. Love for one's country is no longer an abstract concept in textbooks, but has become a vibrant emotion, connected to the community, to friends, and to the present moment.

The atmosphere was vibrant with youthful enthusiasm.

Unitour - a journey to spread sustainable cultural values.

Continuing the film with the Unitour program at universities nationwide is a correct and far-sighted step. Unitour not only expands the reach of the work but also creates a network for spreading cultural values within the student community – the country's young intellectual force.

At each stop, the film is received in different contexts, but all share a common theme: evoking national pride, civic consciousness, and a desire to contribute. This shows that "Homeland in My Heart" is not a product of a fleeting moment, but a cultural journey with depth and enduring vitality.

For the University of Social Sciences and Humanities, the screening of "Homeland in My Heart" is considered a beautiful milestone in the school's cultural life. Such experiences are valuable supplements to formal education, contributing to the formation of character, life ideals, and cultural resilience in students.

The film also suggests new approaches for schools in organizing cultural and ideological education activities, harmoniously combining academics, arts, and community experiences.

From the perspective of the Rector of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities, "Homeland in My Heart: The Concert Film" is truly an unprecedented work - not only because of its unique form of expression, but also because of its intellectual depth, humanistic values, and ability to connect generations.

In modern life, where people are easily swept along by fast-paced and diverse trends, works like "Homeland in My Heart" serve as a spiritual anchor, reminding us of the enduring values of the nation. And it is in spaces like university lecture halls—places where knowledge and aspirations are nurtured—that spirit is further cultivated, spread, and carried on into the future.
