“Y’all. It’s brilliant. I have never felt so seen in my 50+ years of life. Even my husband, who typically needs several pieces of evidence to subscribe to an idea, watched this film and saw reflections of me, such as the disassociation, the sense of loss, and the relationship problems. The theory of the primal wound describes my life.” KE Garland adoptee author of In Search of a Salve

-- Andrea Ross, author of Unnatural Selection: A Memoir of Adoption and Wilderness in LITPUB.”

“I found it so powerful the way that (Rebecca Autumn Sansom) was able to field the perspectives of so many different parties involved in the adoption constellation. Just to see a sibling, her bio sibling, grappling with what that meant. To be like, “Suddenly I have this sister.”... I think getting that validated is really important, just as much as it is for our experience to be validated."

Sheila (Adoptive Mother)

“Thank you again for bringing the core of Primal Wound to life through this film.”
