The Lost Daughter: Watch Full Movie

While on holiday in Greece, middle-aged university professor and noted translator, Leda Caruso, meets Nina, a young mother, after Nina’s three-year-old daughter Elena goes momentarily missing on the beach. Leda finds Elena and returns her to Nina, who expresses her growing exhaustion and unhappiness.

Struggles of Motherhood

Elena is upset after she loses her favorite doll, which Leda has secretly taken. In flashbacks, it’s shown that Leda also struggled with being a young mother to her two daughters, Bianca and Martha, often losing her patience and becoming withdrawn from her family.

Revelations and Confessions

One evening, Leda has dinner with Lyle, her holiday apartment’s caretaker, who sees that she has the doll but doesn’t comment on it, nor does he tell Nina. Leda later discovers Nina is having an affair with Will, who works at the beach bar, and Nina explains that her husband Toni is very controlling. The search for Elena’s doll continues, with Nina even putting up flyers offering a reward for its return.

At a market, Leda buys Nina a hatpin to help hold her sunhat in place. When Nina asks Leda about her daughters, Leda becomes emotional; she reveals that she had abandoned them for three years after she became too overwhelmed, leaving them with her now ex-husband, during which time she had an affair with a fellow professor. She admits that being away from her daughters felt “amazing”, and she only went back to them when she genuinely missed them. Nina learns that Leda knows about her and Will, and he later asks Leda if they can borrow her apartment to have sex.

The Turning Point

The next day when Nina arrives at Leda’s to get the apartment keys, Leda admits to being a selfish and “unnatural” mother and warns that Nina’s depression will never go. She then gives Nina Elena’s doll, confessing that she took it and that she was “just playing”. Nina reacts angrily by stabbing Leda in the stomach with the hatpin before leaving. That night, Leda packs her bags and leaves the resort, but drives her car off the road due to her injuries; she soon collapses on the shoreline.

Resolution and Reconciliation

The next morning, Leda awakens and calls Bianca, who happens to be with Martha. They express their relief to hear from their mother, from whom they had not heard in several days. Leda says she is fine and then looks down to discover an orange in her hands; she peels the orange skin off “like a snake”, the way she had done for her daughters when they were little.
