麻豆约拍

Actor and writer Yusra Warsama's family fled war in Somalia, and arrived in the UK when she was a baby.

In Daughter, she reflects on the final part of the refugee child's journey: growing up in a new country as a child of refugees, suspended between two cultures, and not fully part of either.

"How can we not lose ourselves in this place that doesn't let us truly sing our hearts' song?

There has to be more than feeling like an alien in the only place you know as home. The only place that has your heart."

The stories in Daughter are from Yusra witnessing and listening to the world around her, and the programme contains some strong discriminatory language.
