In regional provinces in China, tens of thousands of women are looking for their families. They are the legacy of China’s strict one-child policy aimed at controlling population growth. They were abandoned by their parents who wanted their only child to be a son. Many of these unwanted girls were given away to foster families. But their foster parents weren’t acting out of kindness. Instead, they had a clear goal: one day the girls were to marry their sons. On Foreign Correspondent, a film by Channel News Asia captures the stories of these women who are now trying to reclaim their lives. Many have struggled due to lack of education and social stigma and have never adjusted to being married to their foster brothers. As they search for clues to their past, DNA programs are helping them reunite with their biological families.
