“The Mistake” is a new photography series that will be shot in Vietnam in 2025. The series aims to capture the untold stories of the last remaining soldiers from the American / Vietnam War – primarily those who fought for the National Liberation Front, the NLF.
Through intimate portraits and personal interviews, this project will illuminate the long-lasting impact of one of the 20th century’s most controversial conflicts.
A (major) critical mistake of the war was that the Americans thought that they were fighting a war against the advance of Communism (then known as the Domino Theory). While the North Vietnamese, the National Liberation Front, and the Viet Cong thought that they were fighting a civil war with South Vietnam – supported by Western imperialists.
FYI: April 30, 2025 is the 50th anniversary of the war’s end.
