The mother of transgender Minneapolis mass shooter Robin Westman once appeared in a movie made by her daughter — who she gave up for adoption as a child, a report revealed.
Mary Grace Westman, 67, starred in the short film “Mary Meets Grace,” written and directed by her biological daughter, Faryl Amadeus, 44, who was adopted as a child from Kentucky, the Daily Mail reported.
That 2021 short film, which appeared in several festivals, was a fictionalized retelling of Amadeus’ real-life reunion with her biological mom, played by Mary Grace herself.
“My birth mother, who appears in the film, found me in 2005 and we later reunited with my bio dad in 2012,” Amadeus told Nerd Daily in 2021. “The emotional mystery of adoption could fuel countless stories.”
“My birth mom was so generous with this project. She lent me photographs of herself, she flew during the pandemic to film. We have a very special connection. And it is different from being my mom, which I have,” the filmmaker expounded.
