The official synopsis of The Lost Daughter on Netflix states:

"A woman's quiet seaside vacation takes an unsettling turn when her fixation on a young mother staying at a nearby villa awakens memories from her past."

Leda is a middle-aged, divorced woman, who is a mother of two and an English Professor. She goes on a solo vacation by the seaside to feel more liberated when her daughters visit their father.

She comes across a family with their little daughter at the beach during her holiday, which unsettles her. She starts to encounter the demons of her past as a mother, which she has to fight herself.

The hauntings continue to persist and take a psychological toll on her, while the family, especially Nina and Callie, are suspicious about her behavior. The Lost Daughter depicts whether a woman overcomes the struggles of being a mother or gets trapped in the pain and regrets.
