10-year-old Vittoria has a close relationship with her loving mother Tina. But their quiet Sardinian life will be upset when the young girl discovers that local partier Angelica is her birth mother. When Angelica is forced to move away because of financial troubles, she asks to become acquainted with Vittoria. Tina agrees, comforted by the idea that the woman will soon be leaving town. Searching for something deep and inexplicable, Vittoria and Angelica spend more and more time together against Tina's will. Torn between two mothers, DAUGHTER OF MINE is gripping, naturalistic and intimate sophomore film from Italian director Laura Bispuri (SWORN VIRGIN).
