Very well done. Redwood Curtain is worth the view. I may like to watch it again one day. I think for many this story may hit close to home. The war was a terrible thing and the lonliness of war drives people to get into relationships that forever change a person's life. Geri's mom certainly made a hard decision and Geri was certainly surprised when she found out John was her birth father....

a beautiful and sensitive film. Lea Salonga shines as Geri, the Vietnamese young lady.
Life's about relationships and how these relationships develop into blossom or dryness. The good news is that you can turn dry channels into springs with kindness and love.

Redwood Curtain

Adapted from the Broadway play of the same name, Redwood Curtain is a touching story of a young Vietnamese woman in search of her true identity.

Adopted by a wealthy Californian family, Geri is a gifted Vietnamese teen, well on her way to becoming a concert pianist. But when her adoptive father dies unexpectedly, Geri is suddenly compelled to seek out her biological father, an American veteran living in seclusion in the Redwood Forest of Northern California.

Starring Lea Salonga and John Lithgow.
