Wow!!

If you're looking for a in depth look at the trials and tribulations of adoption, this is your movie. "Searching for Yoo" was raw and unfiltered in its portrayal of Dani', a Korean orphan, and her childhood. The movie continues to look at how one deals with the trauma of living through such experiences while trying to find out more about Dani's past. Marissa and John give great performances and show their chemistry on set, while you can't look away from the scenes with Dani's step mom (played by Karla) and Avelyn. Avelyn is sure to be a future star on the screen. I think anyone would enjoy this movie and especially those that have a connections to adoption.
