At just 7 months old, Tobias Öhrn was taken from his mother in Chile and adopted to Sweden using falsified documents during the Pinochet regime.

For decades, he knew almost nothing about his biological family — not even their names.

Then one DNA match on MyHeritage changed everything.

40 years later, Tobias — whose real name is Eduardo — traveled back to Chile to meet the siblings who had spent their lives searching for him.

Between the 1960s and 1990s, thousands of children were separated from their families in Chile. Many are still searching for answers today.
