DESCRIPTION:
(from Oxygen's press release, November 2015) Oxygen Media will premiere its two new docu-series "Finding My Father" and "Rich In Faith" on Wednesday, December 9 beginning at 9pm ET/PT. At 9pm ET/PT, "Finding My Father" follows 16 young women and men taking a leap of faith in the hope of connecting with their biological fathers for the first time. Using social media, distant family connections, and the assistance of private investigators, these bold young people attempt to piece together details about their fathers' lives and current whereabouts in order to answer key questions and heal the emotional scars left by their fathers' absence. The journeys often take unexpected turns, including discovering previously unknown siblings, finding out a father is currently homeless and learning that a dad has lived only an hour away for his biological child's entire life. The series examines the importance of family to young people's identity and explores the lengths they will go in order to find their fathers - and, in a way, a piece of themselves. |
