Description

From the producer of “The Piano” and “Lantana” comes “The Daughter” — featuring an all-star ensemble cast including Geoffrey Rush, Paul Schneider, Sam Neill, Ewen Leslie and Miranda Otto.

Keep your family close and your secrets closer.

In the last days of a dying logging town, Christian (Paul Schneider) returns to his family home for his father Henry’s (Geoffrey Rush) wedding to the much younger Anna (Anna Torv). While home, Christian reconnects with his childhood friend Oliver (Ewen Leslie), who has stayed in town working at Henry’s timber mill and is now out of a job.

As Christian gets to know Oliver’s wife Charlotte (Miranda Otto), daughter Hedvig (Odessa Young) and father Walter (Sam Neill), he discovers a secret that could tear Oliver’s family apart. As he tries to right the wrongs of the past, his actions threaten to shatter the lives of those he left behind years before.

“Deeply involving and emotionally searing. Something urgent and new. Profoundly moving.” — Eddie Cockrell, Variety
