Why did my mum give me away? An adoptee's quest for answers

Available for over a year

Aged 22, filmmaker Sun Hee Engelstoft flew from Denmark to South Korea for the first time since her adoption as a baby. After seeking her Korean birth mother and facing rejection, she was motivated to understand why she was given away. In order to understand her mum's decision, Sun Hee lived at a shelter for pregnant mums, filming their lives. There she was confronted with the uncomfortable truth behind her adoption and the circumstances single mums face in South Korea. Sun Hee's film is called Forget Me Not.
