Angela Patton and Natalie Rae on Daughters

Angela Patton and Natalie Rae on Daughters

As part of her work as CEO of Girls for a Change, Angela Patton was faced with girls in her community who desperately wanted to spend quality time with their fathers. But in this case, the girls’ fathers were in jail, in a system that increasingly prevented contact time with loved ones. Not one to be phased by a challenge, Angela pioneered the highly successful programme, Date with Dad, which provided just that: an opportunity for the girls to attend a dance with their dads. When director Natalie Rae heard about the programme, she was keen to learn more, and so the pair collaborated to produce the new Netflix feature documentary, Daughters. Jen caught up with Angela and Natalie to talk about the programme, why it is so needed, and how the many problems within the US criminal justice system bleed into the rest of society.
