ROOTS

When she is ten years-old, Séverine Sabatier-Martinez finds out she was adopted. A deep-seated angst creeps in and drags her in a self-destructing process, through rebellion towards her mother and running away from home with one obsession: find her parents, especially her biological mother. Drifting around is one step from drifting away... Séverine has bad encounters and begins a long descent into Hell among eating disorders, rape, foster homes, drugs, suicide attempt. She owes her salvation to the simple power of a little medal she finds accidentally, at the moment when she desperately beseeches the heavens to give her a sign. Séverine hangs on, does not lose hope and from this point onwards, relies on her absolute Faith. A long recovery begins...?A powerful and moving autobiographical story, that testifies to how God works marvels in a life when He finally finds His 'child who went astray.'
