ADULT ADOPTION

Twenty-something Rosy is an anxiously independent young woman… she’s holding down an office job, rents an apartment, and dates with, uhm, urgency… but she’s an orphan, a product of the care system, and when a coworker suggests she explores the brave new world of adult adoption she can’t shake the idea. Turns out finding a “parent” at this stage of life is every bit as fraught as finding a romantic partner… Putative “dad”, Brian (Michael Healey), sends confusingly mixed signals, and “mom”, Jane (Rebecca Northan), seems almost as fragile as Rosy.
