Switched at Birth Movie Review 1991

A fact-based drama about two girls, switched in a hospital nursery at birth. Only when one girl dies, a decade later, do her parents discover that she could not have been their biological child. Their search for their daughter leads to an emotional conflict between the girl, the man that raised her, and the biological parents who seek to claim her. Beware of the sappy Hollywood ending; five years later the story of Kimberly Mays was still going through the U.S. judicial system.
