Like Dandelion Dust

Like Dandelion Dust (2009) — watch online on iFILM. Jon Gunn's drama, adapted from Karen Kingsbury's novel, pits a biological father's legal rights against seven years of love built by strangers.

Rip Porter (Barry Pepper) walks out of prison after serving time for assaulting his wife Wendy. He wasn't there when their infant son was given up for adoption. He didn't sign the papers. The Campbells — played by Cole Hauser and Mira Sorvino — have raised the boy through every birthday and skinned knee and nightmare. Now Rip wants him back. Legally, he has a case. The film makes no villain out of either family — it just holds both up to the light until the situation cracks. Stream Like Dandelion Dust online on iFILM.
