Daughters From China
In China, legend has it that when a baby girl is born a red thread is tied between her and those closest to her. Under the current Chinese government's one-child policy, baby girls are sometimes unwanted by their natural parents and adopted by American couples. From the adoptive parents' recollections of meeting their daughters to the girls' honest reflections of growing up in Western society, Daughters from China provides an upbeat, heartwarming glimpse into these families where love transcends racial differences.
