What happens

The House of No Man (Vietnamese: Nhà bà nữ) is a 2023 Vietnamese comedy-drama film directed and co-produced by Trấn Thành. The film stars Lê Giang, Uyển Ân, Song Luân, Trấn Thành, Khả Như, Quỳnh Lý, Phương Lan, Dương Lâm, Ngọc Giàu, and Việt Anh. Inspired by the story of a woman selling crab noodle soup for 300,000 VND that sparked controversy on social media, and the family story of a friend in the entertainment industry of Trấn Thành, the film revolves around the conflicts within the family of Mrs. Ngọc Nữ, who runs a crab noodle soup shop in an old apartment complex. In April 2022, Trấn Thành announced the release of the film Mai during the 2023 Lunar New Year, but this project was postponed to 2024 after The House of No Man was announced for production. Similarly to Bố già, The House of No Man also explores aspects of family, but delves deeper into the complex relationships within a family. The film was shot in Thủ Đức City from July to October 2022. The film premiered on January 22, 2023, the first day of the Lunar New Year. With a gross of 475 billion VND, The House of No Man officially surpassed Dad, I'm Sorry to become the highest-grossing film in Vietnamese box office history, receiving mostly praise from critics. In addition to its domestic release, the film was also released in the United States on March 3, in Australia and Singapore on March 9, and in Canada on March 10, 2023. The film received two acting nominations for Uyển Ân and Song Luân at the Vietnam Film Festival 23rd Vietnam Film Festival, and won the Silver Kite Award and the Kite Award for Best Screenplay.
