I really admire Rebecca Rusch determination , courage , love and physical endurance for embarking upon this long and tiring journey along Ho shi min trail to find out about the crash site of her late father in Loas . Had it not been for the love of her father she would not have been able to finish this journey . This should set an example for us that you do need to prove yourself that you can do anything you want if you believe in achieving it notwithstanding the perils and hardship you may run into .

The story line, relationship of Rusch and her Vietnamese companion, interaction with the Vietnamese people today amidst the horrible legacy of our war there is fascinating and deeply disturbing. Rusch's naivete about the war, why it was fought is jarring. There was no South Vietnam created by the Geneva Treaty, it was a temporary division only two years until nationwide elections were to be held, elections that would have overwhelmingly elected Ho Chi Minh. The South was a US puppet created purely for political purposes. There was absolutely no justification for the US to be there. The millions of lives lost, destruction of the forests and villages were all for nothing. It was truly one of the great crimes against humanity of the 20th century. That the Vietnamese accept, forgive and move on is incomprehensible to me.

Rebecca Rusch and her partner, Huyen Nguyen, were inspirational in this emotional film that brought on tears of both sorrow for the devastation of war and pride for seeing two strong women conquer the Ho Chi Minh trail on their bicycles. Highly recommended for anyone interested in mountain biking, the Vietnam War, or any active girls or women who aspire to embark on great adventures!

Blood Road (2017) is a documentary directed by Nicholas Schrunk. Rebecca Rusch is a woman whose father was shot down as his plane attacked the Ho Chi Minh trail in Laos. Rusch is an elite athlete in several sports. Huyen Nguyen is a Vietnamese woman who is also an elite athlete. After over 40 years, the wreckage of Rusch's father's plane is found, and there are teeth that are found with it, thereby confirming his death. Rusch and Huyen Nguyen set out to bike along the entire Ho Chi Minh trail, with the hope of finding the crash site themselves. Of course, they are accompanied by a crew of experts. This is a film of physical triumph, but also of immense sadness. The U.S. bombed the Ho Chi Minh trail continuously during the war against Vietnam. Watching the film, we get some small sense of how many huge bomb craters there are, and how many unexploded bombs still are taking their toll against innocent civilians. Another reviewer has mentioned the "senseless war," and I believe that almost anyone who sees this film will agree. The filmmakers took great pains to present an even-handed view of the situation. We get voice-over readings of letters that Rusch sent home to his wife. They are very moving. The people who planned the war against Vietnam weren't there fighting it. As always, the people in the White House and the Pentagon send other people to fight. Sometimes they return home, sometimes they don't. The scenery along the Ho Chi Minh trail is incredible, and watching this movie in a theater gave us the opportunity to appreciate it. The movie will work on the small screen. However, if you get a chance to watch it in a theater, that's what you should do. The Domino Theory was that all of Southeast Asia would become hostile to the U.S. if the U.S. forces were defeated in Vietnam. As it turned out, this didn't happen. In fact, in a way, the dominoes went in the other direction. As we watch footage of Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon) we see a Starbucks sign! We watched this interesting film in Rochester's excellent Little Theatre. It was shown as part of the High Falls Film Festival-- Celebrating Women in Film. Blood Road was voted as the "Best of the Fest" documentary.

I was deeply moved by this documentary film about a daughter who went on soul searching, root finding trip on bike to trace back where her father's F4C fighter jet crashing site along the Ho Chi Ming Trail in 1972. This film is also a great journey for me to finally get the opportunity to witness the atrocity, cruelty, the absurdity and pointlessness of Viet-Nam war. The daughter, Rebeca, is a tough mountain biker, who went to Viet Nam and Laos along the Trail to pay a tribute to her father. We saw through her own eyes, her heart and her soul to know why she needed to do this and she had proved that journey indeed was necessary for one of her later chapter of life. Great cinematography, really realistic and beautiful through the production team's camera. A seamless, also perfect editing, There's only one thing I like to point out here: When visiting Huyen Nguyen's home, she should take off her hat when she said hello to Huyen's father; she should also take off her hat during the welcome dinner Huyen prepared for her. This is supposed to be the basic politeness she should learn especially when visiting an Asian family. Taking off the hat, showing respect to the elderly and needless to say, taking off hat at the dinner table should be a basic table manners, no matter in the West or in the East.

A very toutching documentary. The story of a women ho finds happiness and herself accompanied by another amazing woman

Blood Road is an emotional documentary about a daughter (Rebecca Rusch) remembering her father, a US pilot that died during the Vietnam War, by riding the Ho Chi Minh trail by mountain bike and so to try finding the place where his plane crashed and where he lost his life. She does that in the company of the Vietnamese Huyen Nguyen. The nature shots and the traces of war, thousands of craters, are nicely shot. On their way, they talk about the stupidity of wars and other things. Once being ennemies, at least their forefathers, to now trying to understand what happened in those times. I'm a Belgian so I won't pick a side in any of all those ridiculous wars, but it's obvious the USA started a war again that shouldn't have taken place. The 50 or 60000 Americans that died there are a peanut compared to the million others that died there. Millions of bombs released on Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam, killing millions by napalm and Agent Orange, once again the USA used non-conventional weapons and by so killing millions of innocents. That the father died, even though he was just following orders and had issues with it, is just what he deserved. That the daughter loved her father is normal and I applaud her quest. What I applaud even more is the fact she's now helping getting rid of those non-exploded bombs. Bombs that her father dropped. His other daughter apparently didn't understand anything about the issues of her father, because she's herself in the army right now. I don't know how she thinks that her father would be proud of that, but she apparently does think that. Blood Road is an interesting documentary to watch, even if you're not into wars.

Why trash good pictures and story with garish promotion?

Brenda WairimuMay 23, 2023

"Blood Road" is a beautifully told story of one woman's determination to find and be reunited with her father who was killed during a bombing mission in Vietnam Nam in 1972. Although the woman, Rebecca had lost her Father in 1972, when she was 3 years old, it had been a life long wish to find his final resting place. Thus, along with a team to help her and a Vietnamese woman aiding her in her journey along the Ho Chi Min trail, they set out to find the place her Father's plane went down. The story is a tribute to the human spirit, determination, understanding, self awareness and finally....peace. It was moving and beautifully shot. All of the dialog was from the mouths of the participants and those assisting Rebecca on her long and arduous journey. This documentary does not start out as a "feel good" tale. But, for me, it ends on a very high note. One of triumph and closure for a woman who loved a Father she never really knew. A tremendous and triumphant film....terrific!
