"For the first time, we sit face to face with birth parents who share with us the hard decisions they have made and the emotional toll they have suffered; we go to orphanages and take an intimate look at the living conditions of children usually inaccessible to film crews; we also converse with a wide range of ordinary Chinese citizens and scholars on the subject of international adoption."
-- Changfu Chang : LoveWithoutBoundaries.org


This 50-minute film is the culmination of more than five years of research and 100 hours of footage by Dr. Chang and his crew. Dr. Chang has introduced the film to many FCC chapters across the country. He will share information about the making of the film and about his interviews with birth parents in China and lead a Q & A session after the screening.

Professor Chang’s previous documentaries include Love Without Boundaries, My Unforgotten Daughter, Embracing World Cultures: The Legacy of Pearl S. Buck and International Adoption and The Willow Trees, a film about FCC parent Bonnie Ward which received the Broadcast Education Association’s Award of Excellence in the documentary category.

DVD copies of Long Wait for Home and some of Dr. Chang's other films will be available for purchase the day of the event at a $5.00 discounted price.
