Two parts of the film tell the life stories of President Souphanouvong when he studied in Vietnam and then worked as chief architect of the civil engineering department of An Nam Trung Ky (central Vietnam) in Nha Trang, along with the historic meeting of Prince Souphanouvong with President Ho Chi Minh in September 1945 and his escape from Phonkheng prison of Vientiane capital city in July 1959.
