FILMSaferin Silence
Corinne — estranged from her mother, (a WWII refugee), searches for the truth of her family’s hidden past. Uncovering Jewish roots, she is pulled into a complex journey spanning 30 years and discovering family dispersed over five continents. On the journey she is met with startling revelations that force her to face the patterns of hiding and secrecy that have profoundly affected her life.
BOOKThe Roadto Cali
Embark on a poignant journey that will touch your heart in author Corinne Chateau’s inspirational memoir, “The Road to Cali”.
Chateau didn’t know if she’d make a good mother — she wasn’t even sure if she wanted to be a mother. Two miscarriages seemed to confirm, it was not destined to be. That is, until, she heard about a baby in the distant Republic of Georgia.
PLAYThe SunShines East
Based on true events, the play “The Sun Shines East” is an international adoption story set against the backdrop of political strife in the mid-1990s.
