The film was made by directors Nguyen Thu Ha and Vu Thi Thu Trang, and screenwriters Nguyen Thu Ha and Khuong Quynh Lien.

With a length of over 29 minutes, the film reproduces significant milestones featuring President Ho Chi Minh’s thought about peace in the international and national context.

After being enlightened by Marxism- Leninism, Nguyen Ai Quoc (aka Ho Chi Minh) found the right path to liberation of the nation and established the Democratic Republic of Vietnam – the first democratic state in Southeast Asia. The “Declaration of Independence” read by President Ho Chi Minh at Ba Dinh Square was a proclamation of peace, opening up the Ho Chi Minh era.
