Years  later, Joan’s son David discovers an unbelievable secret. His  grandfather was a high profile communist who was executed by the Greek  State. And there is also another sister, who still lives in Greece. Her  name is Effie and she has been looking for Joan and Kathryn her whole  life since the three of them were forcefully separated by the police.

Joan  and Kathryn were part of an international adoption scandal that sent  thousands of Greek babies to America during the Cold War years.
