    A nice gentle look at reunion of mother and child separated at birth.

    An adoptee finds her mother and moves in with her. They both work out some of the problems caused by adoption in their lives. The movie touched on some of the ways adoption complicates peoples lives, but it was very nice – very calm, very gentle. I enjoyed watching it, but it does not accurately portray the angst and pain I see in real life reunions, as necessary as they are. It was a pleasant movie.
