Alone on a seaside vacation, Leda (Olivia Colman) becomes consumed with a young mother and daughter as she watches them on the beach. Unnerved by their compelling relationship, (and their raucous and menacing extended family), Leda is overwhelmed by her own memories of the terror, confusion, and intensity of early motherhood. An impulsive act shocks Leda into the strange and ominous world of her own mind, where she is forced to face the unconventional choices she made as a young mother and their consequences. Maggie Gyllenhaal makes her directorial debut from a script she adapted from the novel by Elena Ferrante. The Lost Daughter also stars Dakota Johnson, Jessie Buckley, Ed Harris, Peter Sarsgaard, Paul Mescal, and Dagmara Dominczyk. R | 121mins

Dickon Hinchliffe’s unique style of composition and arrangements developed from his classical study of the violin, songwriting, and recording in bands. A multi-instrumentalist – guitar, violin, cello, piano, he is a founder member of the British band Tindersticks with whom he wrote orchestral arrangements, recorded numerous albums, and toured worldwide. He began scoring films when French director Claire Denis asked Tindersticks to write the music to two of her films and following this he scored her acclaimed film Vendredi Soir. Dickon then went on to score both American and British films beginning with the Grand Jury Prize-winning Sundance film Forty Shades of Blue in 2004 for Ira Sachs. 

In 2010 Dickon composed the score to the Sundance Grand Jury Prize-winning film Winter’s Bone, directed by Debra Granik, that was nominated for four Oscars including Best Actress for Jennifer Lawrence and Best Picture. In 2014 Dickon scored Stephen Knight’s Locke, starring Tom Hardy, a collaboration that continued when he scored season 3 of Peaky Blinders that was written and created by Knight. Collaborations with other directors include Michael Mann (Luck), Oren Moverman (Rampart), Scott Cooper (Out Of The Furnace), Ramin Bahrani (At Any Price), Ricky Gervais (Special Correspondents), James Marsh (Red Riding, Project Nim, Shadow Dancer). Dickon’s most recent film scores include Idris Elba’s Yardie, Debra Granik’s Leave No Trace, Frankie by Ira Sachs, Misbehaviour directed by Philippa Lowthorpe, and The Lost Daughter by Maggie Gyllenhaal.
