The Lost Daughter15

Directed by Maggie Gyllenhaal | USA | 2021 | 2h 2m | Starring Olivia Colman, Dakota Johnson, Jessie Buckley, Paul Mescal, Ed Harris, Peter Sarsgaard

Alone on a summer vacation in Italy, a college professor confronts the decisions of her past after meeting a mysterious young woman and her daughter. Adapted from a novel by Elena Ferrante, Maggie Gyllenhaal’s strikingly assured debut paints a lingering study of guilt, desire, and motherhood.

Reviews

‘An ambitious and taboo-tackling first feature with an atmosphere that lingers thanks to gutsy performances from Colman and Buckley.’
★★★★
Sophie Monks Kaufman, Little White Lies

‘A sophisticated, seductive, slightly unwieldy and often very sad study of the instability and upsets of motherhood.’
★★★★
Ella Kemp, Empire Magazine
