My Father, My Kidnapper (2019)

Two decades have passed since Lena Winters, a resolute hairdresser, and her daughter Casey, a college student with aspirations of studying in Italy, escaped the grisly clutches of Timothy Fast, a monstrous man who held Lena in a nightmarish captivity for eight long years. During this dreadful period, Lena gave birth to Casey, a child conceived in the shadows of fear and violence. Now, 20 years later, the mother and daughter duo, formerly known as Jane Marsh and Charlotte Marsh, live under new identities, their past kept hidden to avoid resurrecting painful memories. While imprisoned for his unspeakable crimes, including murder, Timothy continues to cast a malevolent shadow over their lives. The psychological scars of their past run deep; Lena grapples with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder while Casey is tormented by haunting nightmares, recalling a childhood spent in the eerie confines of captivity. Their past horrors are reawakened when they are confronted by Nate Bishop, a persistent private detective investigating a series of chilling abductions and murders, eerily echoing Timothy's modus operandi. Reluctant to be drawn back into this dreadful saga, Casey finds herself compelled to cooperate when she discovers an item among their keepsakes that hints at a repressed memory, potentially the key to unmasking the current malefactor.
