Watched this on Netflix just now and I found this documentary has many angles.
The documentary tells about the One Child Policy in China that left many babies stranded and given away by poor families and how many many years later three girls who were adopted by American parents trying to find their biological parents in China.
The documentary invokes questions about the policy itself. On one side it was a bit harsh since poor family that could not afford to pay the fine of USD8,500 must give away their child(ren). On the other side, had China not adopted this policy, could China who were a poor country rise to be the economic power today?
The documentary also tells about human nature in general: all parents love their kids, adopted or not, no matter where you come from.
The documentary also shows that people are at the core all the same. Thus, all the current conflicts are pointless and stupid, fired by those with political hunger and ambition.
Again, this documentary tells much more than just the journey and effort of the three girls trying to find their biological parents.
Oh, like any movie today, it has a plot twist.
