The Cast

Canadian adoptee: Vivian
Where: Toronto
Vivian was adopted from Jiujiang, Jiangxi province in 1995, where she was found wrapped in a blanket in the downtown area of the city as a baby. Now part of a loving Canadian family, she attends a multi-cultural Toronto high school and holds a curiosity towards her heritage. It’s been a long time dream of Vivian’s to return to her birth city and discover the life that was hers, and what her future could have been had she remained.

Eve and Hubert (pictured here on the plane to China to adopt Vivian in 1995) were among the very first couples in Ontario to adopt from China, first with their older daughter Hilary and then with Vivian, three years later.They feel protective of Vivian in what could be an emotionally challenging trip for her, but are excited about what they all will discover on this trip to China. Eve will definitely be accompanying Vivian on the trip, making her a strong supporting character in the film, but work commitments make it uncertain whether Hubert will be there as well.
