Through her vibrant photo-paintings of family, Mabel Valdiviezo’s full-length documentary "Prodigal Daughter” offers a unique perspective on the immigrant experience. It explores the intersections of family reconnection, gendered migration, mental health, and art as a source of empowerment. At its heart, “Prodigal Daughter” challenges the prevailing narrative of 'good immigrant' versus 'bad immigrant,' presenting a deeper, more nuanced story of migration, identity, and belonging.
