The nearly two-minute trailer opens with a scene of an ancient Northern village. The main character – the young Trang Quynh – appears smart and clever in the space of the communal house yard, the ferry, the banyan tree… The incident occurs when Quynh’s father is falsely accused of being a traitor and is forced to go into hiding.

To clear their father's name, a group of friends including Quynh, Coi Nhi, Bi Map, Muoi and a special buffalo embark on a dangerous adventure together. A series of intense events: chasing, fighting, and intellectual battles mixed with humorous laughter create an atmosphere that is both dramatic and witty.
