Plot summary

A young woman is abducted by a man in a gas mask and taken to a remote house. The man, called Father, tells her she will now be Sister and must fill the empty place of the family's Daughter. He says the previous girl died while attempting to escape. Father is a patriarchal figure with strict traditionalist beliefs. He wants Sister to act out a daughter's role so his son, Brother, can experience a normal home. Father claims Brother needs protection from a poisonous world beyond the house. Mother supervises Sister as she obeys the household's rules, performs family scenes, and listens to Father's lectures. Breaking those rules leads to beatings or confinement in the garage.

  • Daughter was shot on 16mm film to achieve the grainy, timeless look that director Corey Deshon felt matched the story's claustrophobic and "eccentric cult" atmosphere.
