de Avonden: Film - Mama, may I go home?

What does it mean to be a mother when your child is not allowed to grow up at home? Mama, may I go home? is an intimate and human documentary by Jesse Van Venrooij and Eline van der Kaa, which follows six mothers whose children were placed outside the home. They speak openly about grief, guilt, and shame, but also about resilience, hope, and the search for cooperation with foster parents. The film invites nuance and empathy. It breaks down misconceptions about parents of foster children and shows how important their lasting role is for the well-being and identity of their child. In the framework of the Week of Foster Care in collaboration with the House of the Child.
