In Ho Chi Minh City (formerly known as Saigon), engineers are on a mission to modernize. Construction is underway to raise Phu My Bridge, a brand-new $100 million cable-stayed bridge. The bridge is a cornerstone in a visionary plan of growth. Vietnam is nation rising out of a long economic slump, but as the country begins to flourish, progress is bringing gridlock to the streets of Ho Chi Minh City. The Phu My Bridge will be a critical link in a new highway system that the city's planners hope will relieve traffic congestion in the urban core. The job to solve the problem falls on the shoulders of a crack engineering team. Construction Manager Kurt Feller faces the brunt of pressure to build the bridge. He must lead the team, and deliver the bridge on its due date - Independence Day in Vietnam. It's a job the former Swiss military Sergeant takes on like a man going into battle. Australian Tim Pittaway, the Bridge Manager, keeps operations on the cable-stayed bridge deck in line and on schedule. French engineer Alain Granet is a contractor who must pull off the most dangerous lifts on the site. Vietnamese-Canadian T.T. Tran and young Vietnamese engineer Nguyen Thanh Nam round out the team in a suspense-filled drama above the Saigon River. The pressure is on the engineering team as deadlines move up and the delivery date looms.
