In following church doctrine, she was forced to sign a contract that wouldn't allow for any sort of inquiry into the son's whereabouts. After starting a family years later in England and, for the most part, moving on with her life, Lee meets Sixsmith (Coogan), a BBC reporter with whom she decides to discover her long-lost son.Canadian Home Video Rating: PG.DVD, widescreen presentation; Dolby Digital.- Subjects: Lee, Philomena; Sixsmith, Martin.; Feature films.; Illegitimate children; Journalists; Mothers and sons; Teenage mothers;
