The Miner's Daughter is a 1927 Australian silent film set in Sydney and Bendigo. Little is known about it and it is considered a lost film.
Everyone's said it was "reported on without much enthusiasm."[2]
It was directed by a Polish photographer, art director and film producer, Leon Forbert, who was visiting Australia in the late 1920s. The star was boxer Bert McCarthy, Australia's featherweight champion at the time. Finance was allegedly provided by members of Melbourne's Jewish community.[1]
