In Search of Us

Ava Dellaira's In Search of Us follows seventeen-year-old Angie, a mixed-race girl navigating her identity and family dynamics with her devoted white mother, Marilyn. When Angie learns about the existence of an uncle she never knew, she begins to question the circumstances surrounding her father's supposed death. Embarking on a journey to Los Angeles with her ex-boyfriend, Sam, she unravels deep insights about herself, her mother, and the truth about her father. This multi-generational love story beautifully intertwines themes of race, family, and first love.
