Find Me a Family

Find Me a Family

Inspired by the real-life story of an 80-year-old Italian widower who successfully advertised for a family to adopt him, Adopt-a-Grandad and Adopt-a-Granny are two films documenting very different journeys undertaken by two elderly people who find themselves alone in life. They each go to live with a family that lacks an older generation. Can a stranger become part of a family?

    1. Adopt a Grandad

    In Adopt-a-Grandad, an 85-year-old childless retired teacher and widower James grabs the chance to move in with single mum Angela and her four young children. They lack a positive male role model, and he has no experience of grandfatherhood. Is it asking too much for a stranger to become part of the family?
