3. getting someone to confess during an interrogation.

How do you confront the demons of your past? Especially when your past is still very much alive. Vincent is visiting his birth-mother for the first time after being given up for adoption when he was seven. He's been waiting over 40 years to know "why" from a woman who has no interest in reliving the past. A funny and heart-breaking emotional tug of war between past and present, truth and deception, healing and being broken.
