His memories suddenly triggered by family portraits and strangely familiar locations, Andy gradually begins piecing together the fragments of his shattered life. But why has his brother gone missing, and can the tattooed girl who claims to be his daughter truly be trusted? When Andy attends a costume party and the strangers who surround him greet him like an old friend, he begins to wonder if his sanity is slipping. Later, when he discovers a mysterious porn tape featuring himself as the star, Andy becomes increasingly horrified of the person he sees in the mirror. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Joe Baltake, Sacramento Bee
In tandem with the ever-growing body of documentaries on the same subject and the data they've all accumulated, it broadens our vision of this great human tragedy.

Students of both the dark and bright side of human nature cannot afford to miss it.

Paul Tatara, CNN.com
As recorded history, Into the Arms of Strangers, is indispensable. As a piece of documentary filmmaking, it's no more inventive than scads of talking-head missives that appear on cable TV every evening.
