New Berlin film screening focuses on welfare
Supporting families and professionals working in the child welfare and adoption sectors is the goal of an event that is a component of a larger series of events held in the Milwaukee region.
The documentary Love Differently, based on the life story of Wisconsin adult adoptee Diana Higgenbottom, will be shown during the screening. Adoptive, reunified kinship, foster, and guardianship families are all eligible to apply, as are people impacted by adoption or out-of-home care, as well as professionals who work with those populations. It is necessary to register using Eventbrite. Poster printing is a common form of advertising.
The movie chronicles Higgenbottom's own adoption experiences while tracing her quest for identity and belonging.
Higgenbottom and Emma Susan, a filmmaker renowned for her emphasis on real-life narrative, began working together in 2020. The end product is a one-hour documentary that examines issues of personal history, family, and identity. Although it is specifically targeted at adults, the screening is intended for a broad audience. There is no rating for the movie. The Wisconsin Family Connections Center will give free popcorn, candy, and drinks to attendees.
Following the screening, there will be a conversation to give viewers a chance to consider the movie's issues and exchange viewpoints.
The Wisconsin Family Connections Center, located at 5200 South Moorland Road in New Berlin, will have a documentary screening and discussion on Friday, July 25 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.
