description The proposal aims to recover some reading keys of the book Regretting Motherhood. Wenn Mütter bereuen by Orna Donath (2016) from the story developed by the film The Lost Daughter by Maggie Gyllenhaal (2021). Donath’s research starts from reflecting on a phenomenon that many women experience, but which is not talked about: recognizing themselves as regretting mothers. The analysis follows the story of Leda, an Italian literature professor who, after a random encounter with a young mother, recalls and updates her own motherhood. The essay reviews the relationship of women with themselves as mothers, considering her role, but also the myths that link motherhood with an inexorable destiny for women.

La propuesta apunta a recuperar algunas claves de lectura del libro Madres arrepentidas de Orna Donath (2016) a partir de la historia que desarrolla el film The Lost Daughter de Maggie Gyllenhaal (2021). La investigación de Donath parte de reflexionar acerca de un fenómeno que viven muchas mujeres, pero sobre el cual no se habla: reconocerse como madres arrepentidas. El análisis sigue la historia de Leda, una profesora de literatura italiana que, a partir de un encuentro azaroso con una joven madre, rememora y actualiza su propia maternidad. El trabajo revisa la relación de la mujer consigo misma en tanto madre, a partir de considerar su función, pero también los mitos que vinculan la maternidad con un destino inexorable para las mujeres.
