The Sept. 24 premiere was a two-show sellout at Lake Forest High School. The film tells an emotional and heartfelt story of the Lake Bluff orphanage, the children who lived there and the people who cared for them. The film uses archival photographs dating from 1894 when the home was founded and tells the story through interviews with individuals who grew up in the home and historic reenactments using local children and adults as actors.
The admission fee is $10 for adults and $5 for children, payable at the door.
Proceeds will be used to offset production costs and to benefit the Lake Bluff History Museum.
