DAUGHTERS

Angela Patton found a way for young girls whose fathers were incarcerated to connect: A prison-hosted dad/daughter dance. The event was about more than just the day. For the fathers, seeing the impact of their absence from their daughter’s lives provides an unrivaled emotional redemption opportunity. Working with co-director Natalia Rae to showcase the now annual program, Patton provides us with protagonists who face their deepest vulnerabilities with equal reserves of courage.

The first screening will be followed by a Q&A with directors Natalie Rae and Angela Patton, editor Troy Lewis, and composer Kelsey Lu.
