When an American soldier seeks to return a forgotten diary to its rightful owner - after twenty-five years and across continents - the former enemies are inspired to carve out an enduring friendship and a private peace.

KONTUM DIARY: THE JOURNEY HOME is the documentary follow-up to KONTUM DIARY (ITVS, 1994). It chronicles the momentous meeting between American veteran Paul Reed and Vietnamese veteran Nguyen Van Nghia, author of the poetic diary, and follows the two men as they undertake an odyssey of forgiveness and reconciliation.
