This mini-series looks at an unfortunate case involving two mothers who gave birth within minutes of each other in a small Aussie hospital in the 1940s. Fearing an accidental baby switch, one family fights all the way to the highest court in the land to prove who the parents actually are.
What strikes me the most, is that today this would all be resolved so quickly & accurately with a simple cheek swab. It is a heart-wrenching movie and anyone who has ever given birth will understand the emotions of the two mothers, fighting for the same child. While not readily available on DVD, or shown on TV, it is the kind of movie one remembers long after the credits roll at the end.
