SUMMARY:New film on adoptees and birth searching to be screened at U of Minnesota
DESCRIPTION:The new documentary  film K-Number\, directed by Seyoung Jo will be screened at a free event open to the public on February 10.   \nThe film describes and follows several Korean adoptees in Korea\, zeroing in on one woman who returned to Korea from the U.S. several times to do birth family searching. It examines the adoption process\, the lack of post-adoption services for adoptees\, and the problems and corruption that persist in  the international adoption program.  It follows adoptees who have expended time\, money and emotional energy in dealing with the dysfunction of the system. \nA Q and A session with the director will follow the screening. \nThe event will be held at the Liberal Arts Engagement Hub\, located in Pillsbury Hall (see map link). \nIt includes a dinner beginning at 5:30 p.m. Registration is appreciated for planning purposes\, but  walk-ins are also welcome. Parking validation is available for attendees (for University-affiliated parking facilities only).  Information on parking and directions to The Hub can be found here. There is also some (city) metered street parking in the neighborhood. \nThis event is co-sponsored by the Asian American Studies Program\, Dr. Rich Lee\, the Center for Race\, Indigeneity\, Disability\, Gender\, and Sexuality Studies\, AK Connection\, the Immigration History Research Center\, and the Department of German\, Nordic\, Slavic and Dutch. \nFor questions on this event\, please email: aa**@*mn.edu \n  \n  \n  \n
