:02:36
I never left Indochina.
:02:38
Camille's hand was ice cold in mine.
:02:41
Her father and mother had just died.
:02:46
They had been my dearest friends.
:02:49
Their plane had crashed
into the ocean.
:02:54
I had no children.
She had no parents.
:02:57
The little princess of Annam
became my daughter.
:03:00
I adopted her.
:03:04
Prince N'Guyen, his wife and I
had been inseparable.
:03:07
In our youth we thought...
:03:09
the world consisted
of inseparable things...
:03:11
men and women...
:03:13
mountains and plains...
:03:15
humans and gods...
:03:17
Indochina and France.
:03:41
By adopting Camille
I inherited her parents' land...
:03:44
increasing the property
my father and I already owned.
:03:50
The Lang-Sai rubber plantation...
:03:52
became one of
Indochina's ten biggest.
:03:55
That was my domain:
15,000 acres of rubber trees.
