The Adoptees
MIKE FRAILEY
Vietnamese adoptee Mike Frailey searches for the truth behind the life and death of his childhood best friend 50 years after they were evacuated from their home country together as part of Operation Babylift. Co-directed by Mike himself, The Adoptees is an epic, personal odyssey spanning continents and decades.
The film is set to complete production in 2026 and will premiere at festivals in early 2027. This is just the beginning. We will launch a nationwide impact campaign and screening tour dedicated to fostering conversation.
VNFS is proudly supporting Mike and the team in his search for answers.
Please reach out to our team should you wish to organise a workshop or friendly chat.
