MOTHER AND CHILD

They may not know one another but there is one common thread running through their lives: adoption. Karen was separated from the little girl she gave birth to at 14 and cannot get over the memory of the child she never got to know. Elizabeth was adopted and, despite her successful career as a lawyer, remains alone. Lucy and her husband embark on the bureaucratic Odyssey of adopting a baby. What is the secret binding these three women together? In what ways does it influence their lives? Combining humor and emotional intensity, "Mother and Child" explores the conventions and the emotional complexities that underpin family bonds.
