Through the deeply personal stories of three children returned to the care system after adoption, this documentary exposes the human cost of institutional failure and their struggle for the fundamental right to love and be loved.
SYNOPSIS:
The film gives a voice to the silenced stories of children who were returned after being adopted in Brazil. Through three deeply moving accounts, the documentary exposes the cracks in a system designed to protect, yet one that too often fails those it is meant to serve. Between the weight of bureaucracy and the pain of rejection, the film offers a raw yet profound portrayal of the struggle for the fundamental right to love and be loved.
