Step upstairs on our first floor for a special screening of Saigon on Wax, a captivating documentary that unveils the hidden world of Saigon’s vinyl revival. Beyond the city’s familiar street life and café culture lies a passionate community of collectors, musicians, DJs, producers, and record shop owners — all united by their love of analog sound.
Through vivid interviews and evocative archival footage, the film celebrates the people behind the grooves — their stories of dedication, discovery, and the deep emotional connection to music that crackles through every record.
