Given Away
What does it mean to adopted and brought up far away from your country of birth? In “Given Away,” this week’s moving new Op-Doc by directors Glenn and Julie Morey, Korean adoptees who grew up in Western countries reflect on the complicated emotional terrain that they’ve navigated in their lives. Glenn Morey was himself adopted from Korea in the wake of the Korean war, and the directors have channeled that connection to create a beautifully nuanced and emotional film. As the Moreys write of Glenn’s experience interviewing adoptees, “He has needed others like him … to help him make sense of his life. They have also helped him make peace with the universe.”

Reviews
Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,
The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
