“It’s summertime in the early 2000s, and a beloved middle school orchestra teacher has died. Brought together in the wake of his untimely death are his two children, Mariana and Joanie. There’s only one problem: neither knew the other existed until now. A biological family drama, Daughterhood explores sibling isolation and the aftermath of genetic donation, asking what it truly means to be someone’s child.”
