my roots.

My Roots – Who are my parents?

What does it mean when the search for one’s own identity remains an open chapter – perhaps forever? In this four-part documentary series, four people confront their own family history and search for their unknown fathers and mothers. Max, Elisa, Philip and Daniela let the camera accompany them on this stirring journey for almost a year. A gripping search for the roots of their own origins, full of insights into the complex interweaving of family relationships and the deep confrontation with their own identity.
