The programme was divided into three chapters featuring many art performances as well as documentary reportages and stories of historical witnesses.
The first part reproduced the years in the late nineteenth century and early twentieth century when Vietnam, in particular,Indochina and many other countries around the world were colonies. The people in these nations were turned into slaves. However, many resistance wars broke out, aiming to seek independence.
The second chapter recalled the story of President Ho Chi Minh leaving Vietnam to seek ways to save the nation. As a result, the victory of the August Revolution helped the Democratic Republic of Vietnam affirmed the nation’s independence.
The third one reflected Vietnamese people’s bravery and will to protect and develop the country following the Independence Day.
