Honest and relevant, intense and riveting, it's a cause for rejoicing.

Bujold anchors the film and brings to it a crucial sense of multiple levels. She and Fletcher, although seen only in flashbacks as Esther, lend crucial support to Brenner, as do others. There's more to Finding Home than may meet the eye.

Finding Home may have been created with a lot of sincerity and heart, but little of it comes through to the audience.
