Movie Screening

Hello my name is Dawn Roberts and I am a local mom with children adopted from China. We are fortunate enough to have been able to schedule a screening of a new documentary called "Somewhere Between" at Regal Cinema in Salisbury on March 11 @ 7:30pm. Below is a synopsis:

In profiling Chinese adoptees in contemporary America, Linda Goldstein Knowlton's (THE WORLD ACCORDING TO SESAME STREET) deeply moving documentary illustrates that even the most specific of experiences can be universally relatable. Of the roughly 80,000 girls who have been adopted from China since 1989—a decade after China implemented its One Child Policy—the film intimately follows four teenagers: Haley, Jenna, Ann, and Fang. These four wise-beyond-their-years, yet typical American teens, reveal a heartbreaking sense of self awareness as they attempt to answer the uniquely human question, “Who am I?” They meet and bond with other adoptees, some journey back to China to reconnect with the culture, and some reach out to the orphaned girls left behind. In their own ways, all attempt to make sense of their complex identities. Issues of belonging, race, and gender are brought to life through these articulate subjects, who approach life with honesty and open hearts. *A note to parents: Due to the sensitive subject matter, this film is not recommended for ages 13 and under.

This even will happen ONLY if enough tickets are sold. Would you be willing to post information about this event? It is good information for any trans racial adoptive family, not only those with children adopted from China.

The tickets can be purchased at the following web site : http://www.tugg.com/events/2977
Tickets are $13

Thank you so much!
