There are two movies by the same name that were really good. The first was simply "Little Girl Lost" (1987) and was based on the true story of a foster child caught up in a system that favoured her abusive father. She was removed from the home as a baby due to neglect and placed with loving foster parents. She began showing extreme resistance to visiting her natural father and would have nightmares and tantrums in the days leading up to and following a visit with him. When the foster Mom comes forward with the abuse, social services removes the child and places her back with her natural father. The story follows the family's fight to reclaim the little girl they consider their own.


Little Girl Lost: The Delimar Vera Story" is based on the true story of a women who refuses to believe that a fire claimed the life of her infant daughter. When the little girl is 6, she finds her leaving with distant relatives, who'd kidnapped her and set the fire to cover it up.

Little Girl Lost: The Delimar Vera Story is an excellent movie. I won't spoil it for anyone, but it is such a great movie and to know it actually did happen, is amazing.

I think, also, that the movie took only a few creative liberties with the film, so we do get basically the true story. LOVED this movie.

The first one you mentioned, I don't think I have seen.

I actually found the Delmar one while trying to find the 1987 one. It did seem true from what I've read, though it's hard to find out anything about Delmar now. I thought I had pictures of the movies but I can't see them now - now sure what happened to them.
