What does it mean to adopted and brought up far away from your country of birth? In âGiven Away,â this weekâs moving new Op-Doc by directors Glenn and Julie Morey, Korean adoptees who grew up in Western countries reflect on the complicated emotional terrain that theyâve navigated in their lives. Glenn Morey was himself adopted from Korea in the wake of the Korean war, and the directors have channeled that connection to create a beautifully nuanced and emotional film. As the Moreys write of Glennâs experience interviewing adoptees, âHe has needed others like him ⌠to help him make sense of his life. They have also helped him make peace with the universe.â
