Ru is inspired by the story of the arrival of Kim Thúy (Tinh) in Quebec. After a dangerous sea crossing and a stay in a Malaysian refugee camp, a young Vietnamese girl named Tinh and her family arrive in Quebec where they begin a new life. Thanks to the warm welcome from all, including their sponsor family, she slowly adapts to her new reality. Tinh will overcome her shyness to learn a new language, discover a new culture and adjust to a new life in Quebec.
