Four baby girls are born in China to families who are unable to keep them, largely because of China’s “One Child Policy.”  Instead of being raised by their biological parents, the baby girls are raised in orphanages, and then eventually adopted by American families to be whisked halfway around the world to the United States.  There, they grow up with Sesame Street, hip-hop, and Twitter.  They describe themselves as “bananas”: white on the inside and yellow on the outside.  All is well, until they hit their teen years, when their pasts pull at them, and they begin to wonder, “Who am I?”They meet and bond with other adoptees, some journey back to China to reconnect with the culture, and some reach out to the orphaned girls left behind. In their own ways, all attempt to make sense of their complex identities.Issues of belonging, race, and gender are brought to life through these articulate subjects, who approach life with honesty and open hearts.  As SOMEWHERE BETWEEN plunges the viewer into the ordinary and extraordinary days of these four girls lives, we, too, are forced to pause and consider who we are—both as individuals and as a nation of immigrants. General Admission 12.07
