A seemingly ordinary decision turns the world of Elisa (Denise Gough), mum to two young kids, upside-down in this tense thriller. When her 9-year-old daughter Lucia (Beatrice Cohen) excitedly asks to go on an overnight playdate with her new best friend Josie (Robyn Betteridge), Elisa agrees. After meeting Josie’s mother, Rebecca (Holliday Grainger), she’s put at ease by her charming nature and their impressive house. But when she says goodnight to her daughter, she has no idea that she is about to be thrust into every parent’s worst nightmare.
As an urgent manhunt unfolds across Europe, Elisa and her husband Fred (Jim Sturgess) find themselves the object of police and public scrutiny. Elisa’s perfect family begins to unravel under the pressure, and long-buried secrets come to light. Rebecca took Lucia for a reason. And as viewers learn more about the tangled lives of these women, the question of whether Rebecca was justified in kidnapping the little girl arises – and if she might be better off staying hidden.
Is The Stolen Girl based on other material?
Yes, it is based on the 2020 novel, Playdate, by Alex Dahl. It is not to be confused with the novel, The Stolen Girl, by Marsha Forchuk Skrypuch which is also about a kidnapped girl, but in Skrypuch's book, the story takes place post-WWII when a Ukranian girl is kidnapped as a child and raised by a Nazi family.
