Daughters , a documentary following four prisoners who bond with their daughters while in jail, was released on Netflix on 14 August. Rotten Tomatoes, a review aggregator website, has compiled more than 50 reviews of the film, all of which are positive – landing it a rare “Fresh” score of 100 per cent.
On social media, viewers have praised the film, with one person writing: “Don’t watch the Daughters Netflix documentary unless you like crying.” “Trigger warning! #daughters on #netflix will have you in tears!” cautioned another. “It’s a documentary that follows inmates in their families as they prepare for a father-daughter dance in a DC jail.

I hope Aubrey learns to hope and love again. God bless these families.” Back in January, the film was acquired by Netflix following its premiere at the Sundance Film Festival.
Actor Kerry Washington, who worked as an executive producer on the film, shared a post celebrating the news on her birthday. “Happy Birthday to ME! I received the best birthday present in the world yesterday..
