Lee in Laos: The Hmong Journey follows Lee, a 22-year-old Hmong woman from a village near Vang Vieng, Laos — whose world expands beyond anything she imagined when an unexpected opportunity takes her across Southeast Asia and into Europe for the first time.

From her first elevator ride to speaking in front of a thousand students in a foreign country, Lee discovers something surprising: the further she travels, the more proudly she carries her Hmong identity with her.

This is not a story about leaving. It’s a story about what you bring.
