Director Tim Wardle's documentary re-examines the 1980 publicity blitz triggered by the reunion of long-lost New York triplets Bobby Shafran, Eddy Galland, and David Kellman. After reliving the heart-warming serendipity of their chance reunion, the film pivots to the question of why the triplets were raised by separate families with no knowledge of each other's existence.
