Description
Two families awaiting the arrival of their adopted infant daughters from Korea meet at the airport. The families' lives become interwined after the Donaldsons, a young American couple, invite the Yazdan's, Maryam, her son and his Iranian American wife to an arrival party, which becomes an annual event. Maryam, who came to this country thirty-five years earlier, feels her values threatened when she is courted by a newly widowed Donaldson. A penetrating light on the American way as seen from two perspectives, those who are born here and those who are still struggling to fit in.
