Saki Omura will do anything for her daughter Yoshiko, diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder. When Saki’s husband is shipped overseas, she is too ashamed of being a burden and too proud to ask for help. My Daughter Yoshiko is a nuanced portrait of the challenges parents face caring for children on the Autism Spectrum.
