Flapping in the Middle of Nowhere is a 2014 internationally co-produced drama film written and directed by Nguyễn Hoàng Điệp.

Her boyfriend, Tùng, works for the city and enjoys illegal cockfighting.

The couple, which never has enough money to make ends meet, decides to abort.

Guy Lodge from Variety wrote "Vietnamese helmer Diep Hoang Nguyen's sly, sensual, politically probing debut is a knocked-up drama with a difference".
