Haiti is among the top ten donor countries in international adoption. The deterioration of living conditions carries thousands of parents to surrender their children for adoption in order to guarantee a better tomorrow. These children often express the wish to reconnect with their pastby trying, often unsuccessfully, to find their parents. Through meetings with the various actors in this search for identity, this report combining videos, photos and writing shows the struggle of these children to find their roots.
