"Daughters" doesn't absolve the inmates of their role in that process, but it also doesn't tell us what they've done to deserve their sentences. What would the specifics of Keith Smith's crimes matter to his impossibly cute five-year-old daughter Aubrey, who practices math by counting the weeks until she can see her father again?
The architects of our carceral state would have you believe that such cruel restrictions are fitting consequences for criminal actions. But "Daughters"... flips that logic against a system that sees broken families as more of a feature than a bug.
