The following trailer is for a score I composed for a wonderful documentary from Director and Editor Andy Ames. The film premiered in London, Dublin, New York City, and Toronto. It's a beautiful, but some times heart-wrenching story of a woman taken from her parents as a baby, years later trying to search for them, but it did not happen. However, she did discover she had five full siblings living in Canada and the reconnection was and is beautiful.
"Only Child" Trailer
This independently produced feature documentary ONLY CHILD: A WOMAN’S COURAGEOUS SEARCH FOR IDENTITY, part investigative documentary that chronicles a 60-year old adoptee from Dublin, Marise Keane’s 20-year journey as she navigates the misogynistic landscape of Ireland’s past.
Throughout the 20th century, thousands of Irish women who found themselves pregnant outside of marriage were coerced into giving their babies up for adoption. Women were abandoned by the society that should have protected them, and their children were secretly punished under harsh Catholic rule, largely adopted out of the country, their legal identity concealed.
