        Mother's fight for justice

        When Vanessa Meyer was falsely arrested her children were taken into care. When she was released she was told that they had been adopted and that their records were lost. I enjoyed this true-life drama.

        Fantastic Film

        This film, based on a true story, shows a mother's hardship in trying to find her children after they are taken from her in very suspicious circumstances. This film is quite heartbreaking. I am unsure as to how much of the story is actually fact but the film shows how strong the human spirit can be. It also shows the strength of the maternal bond. The judge featured in the film was a cruel and cold-hearted. It indicates the range of people that exist in the world. How she lived with herself after covering up the removal of 3 kids from a clearly loving mother is unknown to me. I really like this film and watch it quite often.
