"'Daddy Don't Go' captures two years in the lives of four disadvantaged fathers in New York City as they fight to defy the odds against them. Alex is a single father who lives with his toddler son in a decaying Harlem shelter. Nelson, a former Latin King gang member, is a full-time daddy to his own son and is also raising his partner Rebecca's two daughters. Omar is a doting father who struggles to manage his daughter's mental health issues and Roy is an ex-offender who was granted full custody of his son when the boy's mother succumbed to drug addiction. By allowing the viewer extraordinary access into the lives of its subjects, 'Daddy Don't Go' removes the negative lens through which underprivileged fathers are currently viewed and shatters the 'deadbeat dad' stereotype"--Container.
