Daughter(2014)

Daughter is a drama about a woman confronting her suffocating past. Her mother, obsessed with control, forced her into an austere childhood and relentless surveillance. Now an adult, she returns to her mother's hospital bedside as cancer consumes her—only to find the woman unchanged, still domineering even in her final days. Seeking solace, she visits her former piano teacher, the one person who once offered her kindness and understanding. The teacher, now living alone after caring for his own father through Alzheimer's, becomes a quiet confidant. As the daughter faces her own pregnancy, she grapples with a haunting question: can she ever truly escape the weight of her mother's grip, or will the cycle of pain repeat itself? The film explores how childhood trauma echoes into adulthood and the fragile hope of breaking free.
