FOR MY DAUGHTER is about a newly married couple from a small town in Mexico, that decides to make the journey north to the U.S. for a better life. Emma is young and pregnant. She will follow her husband anywhere. Leo wants to give his daughter a better life in America. Many from this small town have taken this same journey, it is a rite of passage for many here. These people are hard-working, church going country folk. They live off the land, but some take the challenge to make a better life for their families. Sometimes it works and sometimes it does not.
