For the Life of Me (2009)

What if you had to live your whole life without ever knowing who you'd been when you were born? Most adopted citizens in the U.S. - even those over fifty - are never allowed to know their origins. 'For the Life of Me' follows adoptee David Kiley, as he embarks on a journey to reclaim his past. His quest leads to an unexpected conclusion, and along with the story of Joe and other adoptees, including Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Darryl McDaniels of Run DMC, their combined voices illuminate the impact of secrets imposed upon entire lifetimes.
