The world is at our fingertips in Painted Nails — a Vietnamese immigrant story of exotic nail art, pampered clients, and the serious health risks that lurk beneath the brightly painted surface. The nail industry is an economic steppingstone for a generation of Vietnamese immigrant women. Yet, for these women, the promise of the American Dream has its price. Painted Nails will explore the benefits and the dangers both workers and clients face.
