Synopsis:
In 1994, after the loss of my adopted parents, I stumbled into a discovery that would change my life forever. Within two days of making an exploratory phone call to an adoptee hotline, I discovered my birth family. In them I found answers to questions I had never really dared to ask, and I was soon discovering commonalities that I had never expected to exist.
Ten years later, armed only with a small hobbyist’s video camera, I began recording interviews with family members from both my adopted and birth families. I stitched together these interviews into a stirring exploration of family, a modern-day quilt, which tells this story, the story of my birt parents, and the subsequent reunion that has taken place.
