On May 1, 1975 with Viet Cong troops march through Saigon celebrating their victory. Tham, caretaker of Victory Hotel, a relatively small establishment in downtown Saigon, nervously observes these celebrations. The owners have fled Saigon and the hotel is to be requisitioned by the new government. Tham wonders what his fate will be under the new regime. The next day he is told that that the hotel is to be transformed into a collective flat for the Viet Cong cadre and their families now entering the city. Tham is not hostile to this but is concerned about his place in the new set up. Will he still have a job? Will he be treated as an enemy?

A fable about social prejudice, Devil’s Mark tells the story of a young girl who is accused of witchcraft and banished from society. The film was shot in the remote mountainous region of Ganh Son — a gruelling production location that involved transporting cameras and equipment by cattle carts. Rich in mythological associations and striking desolate landscapes, Devil’s Mark also features the first scene of complete nudity in a Vietnamese film.

After the war a young woman from Saigon goes to the countryside at the call of the government to teach love of country to the local people. There she finds that she doesn't really believe in what she teaches, that she's not really interested in the butterflies and birds of the poems she recites and is terribly bored in the countryside.
