About GRAVE DIGGERS FOR HIRE

Documentary

Synopsis

"Grave Diggers for Hire" quietly follows Bình and Ngọc, two men who earn a living tending graves and performing “bốc mộ”—a traditional Vietnamese ritual of exhuming, washing, and reburying human remains. Alongside their sons, they treat the dead with care and humor, maintaining a fading connection between the living and their ancestors.
