Congrats to Adrian Wills on the release of his heartbreakingly beautiful documentary, A Quiet Girl. This is a poignant, painful, and deeply moving film, masterfully told by Adrian. It not only tells the story of Adrian’s journey to learn about his adoption but he is also able to give voice to his mother and of many women who were in her situation in the 70s and 80s.
I was the researcher on the project, my job was to find the people to help Adrian in his quest to learn about his mother. The people we met in the process were so beautiful and generous. I cherish all of them.
