## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

You dig a bomb crater in a village flattened by napalm and uncover a girl still breathing. Shells shake the latrine walls but she slips into the jungle just as the monsoon hits. Saigon’s neon ads flicker on her bruised cheek, and a Marine in starched utilities buys her a bowl of pho.

**Mood tags**: bittersweet, gut-punch, outsider
