Angel of Mine
Noomi Rapace starts to lose the plot when she begins believing that her late daughter may still be alive in this drama-thriller co-starring Luke Evans and Yvonne Strahovski (The Predator).
"Seven years after the death of her daughter, Lizzie locks eyes on a sight she thought she’d never see again: a girl, Lola, who is the spitting image of her own lost child. As she battles for custody of her surviving son, Lizzie’s obsession with Lola only grows – befriending the young girl’s mother, following her everywhere and forcing long-held secrets out into the open."
