Having been the CEO of non-profit Girls for a Change since 2012, Angela Patton never thought she’d have the time to make a documentary. And yet the release of Daughters, which she’s co-directed with Natalie Rae, is on the horizon. Chronicling a programme pioneered by Patton that arranges daddy-daughter dances in prisons, the documentary follows both the fathers as they receive life-coaching sessions in the run-up to the event and the daughters as they process their feelings about seeing their dads again.
