Wonder Animation’s ‘Father-Daughter Dance’ Inspired by a True Story

Wonder Animation Studios has released "Father-Daughter Dance," a short animated film inspired by a true story. 

A young girl is unable to attend the Father-Daughter Dance because her father is in jail. She writes to the sheriff and asks if she can dance with her father at the jail.

Dancing Behind Bars

In January, Alyson Quinn wrote a story about Angela Patton and her idea of holding father-daughter dances in prison.  Such a dance was recently held at the Richmond (Virginia) City Jail, and has garnered a fair amount of media attention.

An article in the Washington Post takes a look at the event, giving a glimpse of both fathers and daughters as they prepare for the dance.
