Eaton, David Quint) won the award for "Best Depiction of Reunion".

Father Unknown director David Quint commented,

"We are honored to receive this recognition by Adoption at the Movies.

We hope Father Unknown can continue to help audiences and families more deeply understand the adoption experience."

The Adoption at the Movies Awards are an annual celebration of those films that are most helpful to the adoption community and those films that portray adoption in a healthy, positive light. The Adoption at the Movies Awards are hosted each year on AdoptionAtTheMovies.com.
