寻根之旅

吉尔·卡迪诺（Gil Cardinal）一生下来就被送到孤儿院，35岁那年，他开始寻找他的亲生父母，试图解开自己的身世之谜。这是一部关于发现的纪录片。Gil 遭遇了挫折和失败，但是他最终找到了他的亲生父母，并对梅提文化有了新的认识。
　　The close relationship between mother and child depicted in For Angela was not something Metis ?lmmaker Gil Cardinal was able to experience. As an infant, he was placed by his mother in the care of the provincial child welfare system and raised in Edmonton, Alberta, as a foster child. At the age of 35, he began a search for more information about his family history and his biological roots. Foster Child documents this very personal journey. It is a painfully slow one marked by frequent frustrations and small, bittersweet victories, but Cardinal proceeds with the persistence of a private detective and the determination of a journalist.
