Searching for Go-Hyang Movie Review 1998

Traces the return of twin sisters to their native Korea after a 14-year absence, when they were sent away by their parents for a better life in the U.S. Examines the mental and physical abuse they received by their adoptive parents, and the erasure of their cultural heritage and language as it looks at the issues of cross-cultural adoption and national identity.
