Who is my family?

Adoption and foster care speak to both the destructive and transformative influence that parenting can have on children, and the healing and redemptive power that being a good parent has on a neglected child. This film collection explores the theme of caring for children who are not our own, from the saga of Lion, the moving shenanigans of Instant Family, the adventure of Shazam! and the comedy of The Lego Batman movie.
