You Tube
You will find several YouTube videos (in Vietnamese) put online by Vietnamese YouTube users. They generally feature the audio version of the Ho Chi Minh’s independence speech (a studio version recorded quite some time after the event as the original live version was lost) while showing anything from a few photos to what actually appears live footage of the Vietnamese declaration of independence on Sunday 02 September 1945 in Hanoi. The below is just a small selection (which you can also explore under Other Material).
