At twenty-something, Alice is hungry
for the milestones of young womanhood: leaving home,
choosing a career, finding friendship and love on
her own terms. But with each step she takes away
from home, she feels the sharp tug of invisible
threads: the love and worry of her Chinese-Cambodian
parents, who want more than anything to keep her
from harm. Her father fears for her safety to an
extraordinary degree - but why? As she digs further
into her father's story, Alice embarks on a journey
of painful discovery: of memories lost and found, of
her own fears for the future, of history and how it
echoes down the years. Set in Melbourne, China and
Cambodia, Her Father's Daughter captures a
father-daughter relationship in a moving and
astonishingly powerful way.
