As with so many adoption stories we’ve seen before on screen, all everyone is after here is closure. Whether or not anyone finds it - well, you’ll have to watch and find out, but this moving and revealing story is worth it. Even with an 88-minute runtime, it can sometimes feel like we linger too long on certain parts, especially in the early scenes back in Amsterdam.
