Winner of both the Target Market Honor as well as in its own USA Documentary area as well as the total Event Fave Honor at Sundance Movie Event previously this year, Natalie Rae as well as Angela Patton’s profoundly relocating documentary Children are going to right now be actually presenting following month. Before a staged launch starting point August 9 as well as a Netflix launching on August 14, the very first trailer as well as signboard have actually right now gotten there.
Listed here is actually the run-through: “A moving portrait of empathy and forgiveness, DAUGHTERS traces an eight-year documentary journey by filmmaker Natalie Rae and social change advocate Angela Patton. The film intimately follows Aubrey, Santana, Raziah, and Ja’Ana as they prepare for a momentous Daddy Daughter Dance with their incarcerated fathers. Speaking openly about their aspirations, dreams, and the emotional toll of their fathers’ absence, compounded by the constraints of virtual visits, these girls reveal a profound wisdom and resilience beyond their years. As they navigate heartbreak, anger, and uncertainty, they seize a precious opportunity to forge connections. DAUGHTERS sheds light on the complexities of familial bonds strained by the unforgiving barriers of the criminal justice system and emphasizes that the foundation of community healing lies within the family unit.”
John Fink stated in his testimonial, “A striking film that evokes a wave of emotions, Natalie Rae and Angela Patton’s Daughters is another picture––à la Rudy Valdez’s The Sentence, Garrett Bradley’s Time, and Zara Katz and Lisa Riordan Seville’s A Women on the Outside––focusing directly on the impact prison sentences have on families. All three films discuss the direct and indirect costs of keeping in touch with loved ones “inside,” coming from going to remote amenities all over the condition or even nation to the outrageous costs asked for through firms (e.g. Safeguards Technologies) for video clip check outs as well as e-mails. Children is actually an oft-poetic take a look at the influence this splitting up possesses on 4 gals, grows older 5 to 15: Aubrey, Santana, Ja’Anna, as well as Raziah.”
