Mother is an embodiment of selfless love, nurturing, and care. However, Lifetime Movie Network's thriller film 'Dying For A Daughter' could change this perception. The film will portray a live-in nurse who gets fixated by the idea of motherhood and obsesses over a kid born to her employee. The movie hints at an edgy plot and viewers can anticipate some vile antics from the antagonist.

Moreover, the film also explores torn-apart relations in marriage and how individual characters cope with tormenting personal relationships. Exciting and twitchy, the movie makes for a good family-oriented thriller. Before we head to watch the movie, here is what we need to know about the film. 

Release date

The movie will release at 7 pm on November 7, 2020, on Lifetime Movie Network.
