Federico Furzan Movie-Blogger.com A decent rendering of the illegal immigration told from the perspective of a family that's set on achieving the perfect condition for their daughter Rated: 2.8/5 Feb 10, 2022 Full Review Alejandro Turdó Hoy Sale Cine For My Daughter (Por Mi Hija) is a crude representation of the never ending illegal immigration crisis in the US. A story about sacrifice, loss, forgiveness and gathering the strength to carry on. Rated: 7/10 Feb 8, 2022 Full Review Evan Dossey Midwest Film Journal A powerfully told story with good performances, even if the end doesn't quite stick the landing.

Audience Member Leo and Emma, a newlywed couple from a small town in Mexico, have made the decision of a lifetime. They are coming to America. But when they arrive, they wonder if the American Dream was everything they hoped that it would be. Fernando Rodriguez directed, wrote, edited, produced and did the cinematography for this movie, which really shows the journey that immigants have to take to try to better their lives in America, even if they have to do it illegally. It's one thing for them to attempt to make this new life on their own, but when they have to consider their daughter Luciana, as well as living in a place with no family, friends or support, they wonder if they've made the right choice. At under an hour, Por Mi Hija let me explore a life I wouldn't be able to see otherwise. That's about all you can ask from a film. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Read all reviews
