在一個兒童福利相對較完善的社會裡,由國家判定不適任的父母親,必須付出一切以爭取親權。電影裡的兩組案例:一個是酒精上癮的單親爸爸,另一位是曾受前男友虐待的年輕母親,他們都因為被指控疏於照顧子女,不得不與親骨肉分離。即便天倫重聚的機會渺茫,他們依然極力對抗貧窮、偏見與官僚主義。透過私密與直接的影像,直擊福利制度下的灰色地帶。
Offering a rare look at the inner workings of the American child welfare system, Tough Love chronicles the lives of two parents-one in Seattle and one in New York City - as each fights to be reunited with children taken out of their homes. Through intimate, verité footage of both families, we witness first-hand the complex bureaucracy of America's child welfare system. Moreover, we come to understand the powerful role poverty and prejudice play in keeping parents and children apart-and the challenges parents must overcome in order to put their families back together.
