From the Press Release:
The Inner Sea: A Groundbreaking Documentary on Adoption and Identity
Adoption stories are often told from the perspective of adoptees or adoptive parents, leaving the voices of birth mothers largely unheard. The Inner Sea, an award-winning documentary by filmmaker Kate Stapleton, changes that narrative by offering a rare glimpse into the adoption experience through the eyes of a birth mother. Directed by Stapleton, who also plays the role of the first-time filmmaker and birth mother, The Inner Sea invites audiences to witness the emotional complexities of adoption, identity, and healing.
Kate Stapleton is the harpist in the harp-and-guitar duo, The Stapletons. She has now expanded her creative portfolio to film as well, directing an award winning Documentary Film called The Inner Sea.
Directed and produced by a first time female filmmaker who is also a birth mother, The Inner Sea explores the complex issues of identity that result from the decision to place a child for adoption, exploring the role that art plays in suffering and healing.
