What happens in Loggerheads from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 12 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 2-minute read.
Spoilers ahead
Loggerheads is inspired by true events and follows the intertwined lives of an adoption “triad” — birth mother, child, and adoptive parents — as three stories unfold across three years in the days leading up to Mother’s Day. Each tale sits in a distinct slice of North Carolina: the Appalachian Mountains, the Piedmont (a broad, gently hilly plateau), and the Atlantic Coastal Plain, weaving together personal journeys, moons of memory, and quiet acts of courage that test the ties of family, kinship, and belonging.
