Adoption and Fostering – I CHOOSE YOU & HANNAH’S HOME

Over 4.5 million children in the U.S. are adopted. While stigmas persist, many adopted teens are speaking out about their families. Abandoned on the steps of an Ethiopian church, filmmaker Dulcinea Harrison traces her origin story from Addis Ababa to Denver in I CHOOSE YOU. And, at 18, filmmaker Hannah Duran locates her biological mother with hard questions and unexpected answers in HANNAH’S HOME.
