My Daughter Hildegart (Spanish; Castilian: '''Mi hija Hildegart'''|link=no)[1] is a 1977 Spanish film directed by Fernando Fernán Gómez based on the book Aurora de sangre by Eduardo de Guzmán. It stars Amparo Soler Leal as Aurora Rodríguez.
From account of Eduardo de Guzmán's testimony, the plot moves back to 1933 Madrid, developing the story of Aurora Rodríguez and the path that led her to kill her daughter, wunderkind, sexology specialist, and progressivist pundit Hildegart Rodríguez Carballeira,[2] conceived by Aurora as the fruit of eugenicist utopia.
The film was released theatrically in Spain on 19 September 1977. It proved to be successful at the Spanish box office, with over one million admissions.[3]
