Official Trailer To Maggie Gyllenhaal’s The Lost Daughter
Netflix has released the official trailer for The Lost Daughter, Maggie Gyllenhaal’s upcoming directorial debut film, based on Elena Ferrante’s 2006 novel of the same name.
Written and directed by Maggie Gyllenhaal and Starring Oscar winner Olivia Colman, the film had its world premiere at the 2021 Venice Film Festival, where Gyllenhaal won the Golden Osella Award for Best Screenplay. It is currently scheduled to arrive in select theaters on December 17, followed by its streaming debut on December 31.

Alone on a seaside vacation, Leda (Olivia Colman) becomes consumed with a young mother and daughter as she watches them on the beach. Unnerved by their compelling relationship, (and their raucous and menacing extended family), Leda is overwhelmed by her own memories of the terror, confusion and intensity of early motherhood. An impulsive act shocks Leda into the strange and ominous world of her own mind, where she is forced to face the unconventional choices she made as a young mother and their consequences.
The Lost Daughter is produced by Maggie Gyllenhaal, Talia Kleinhendler, and Osnat Handelsman-Keren through their Pie Films banner. Samuel Marshall Productions’ Charlie Dorfman is also serving as a producer, with Samuel Marshall and Endeavor Content financing the project
