Daughters movie review
Directors Angela Patton and Natalie Rae focus their documentary on a unique program that aims at bringing together estranged daughters with their respective incarcerated Dads. So, we as an audience become privy to four young girls preparing for a special Daddy Daughter Dance in the `Date with Dad’, a unique fatherhood program in a Washington, D.C., jail.
Angela Patton created a first-of-its-kind program in Richmond, Virginia, to bring girls and their incarcerated fathers together in a well-coordinated environment that would make the fathers and daughters feel cherished and connected. The program became impactful enough that other prisons were willing to emulate it. Featured at Sundance 2024 and Hot Docs festival, this documentary has already packed in a lot of love and awards along its way to this Netflix release.
