L'assassin de ma fille

Great documentary about a father's 30 year quest for justice for his daughter; murdered by her stepfather; a con artist, rapist, and pedophile. The film is well done; it's nicely edited, so therefore not overly long or hard to follow; however, the real reason to watch is the story. Coming from a father, Bamberski is a legend and a hero!

(consider watching with subtitles ON and English audio/dub OFF. At this time, the English voice overlay isn't synched very well)

I can't understand why everyone hasn't rated this 10/10. It's an amazing story of one man's compulsion to get justice - through decades. It is harrowing and touching in equal measure - I certainly found the ending emotional.

The story demonstrates the disregard for fellow human beings that still exists everywhere - not just related to the crime itself but through the justice and political systems and processes.

But it also shows that dogged determination can win through. Many people would have given up. He did not.

Everyone should watch it. You may not 'enjoy' it but I think you'll be moved.

If you are interested in mystery case watch this documentary. This man and father of the killed Kalinka is very courageous and combatant who fights for justice and not for revenge. Finally sentence has been done. It was nonstop ride and well reconstructed. Watch it.

This documentary presents the brutal truth about "Western culture." In particular, within 80 minutes, we watch a father's fight for justice against the system in Germany, which often protects abnormal practices (search for the "Kentler Experiment"). I don't really care about the production quality of this documentary, because the value of this father's story is already immense.

I paused "My Daughter's Killer" only once--it is that riveting.

I watched it in its original language and was particularly moved by the (ultimately) international grassroots cooperation responsible for bringing to justice a monster.

Anyone who would judge Mr. Bamberski--such as incredibly offensive review on this site--as being "forever in grief" clearly hasn't suffered the life-altering murder of a loved one. Shame on that reviewer.

Mr. Bamberski himself gives a very ambiguous benediction to his own actions. A few of us will understand exactly what his closing line means. For those few, his confirmation of the road's loneliness to justice is intensely felt.

This is a magnificent documentary.
