CONSEQUENTIAL LIES

see adult comments

Another professional piece of film making from high school student, Alex Swerdlowe. This covers a somewhat adult topic that will appeal to older teens. A woman is contacted by the mother of her adopted daughter wanting to meet her birth daughter. Jane, the adoptive mother, never told her daughter that she was adopted. You should be aware that there are some strong religious themes, such as Jane's priest uncle giving a sermon about how omissions are no different than lies. Stars Kimberley Lowden, James Noble, and Joanna Keylock. Beautifully filmed, professionally acted with a good story line. In the beginning we see mini-flashbacks and memories. Great discussion starter, especially for adopted children and parents. But others will benefit from the discussion of lying by omission.

An isolated suburban woman with a dark past receives a phone call that reveals an eighteen-year-old secret.
