Flightplan

Saw it on Sky again... a 2005 thriller with Jodie Foster.

Imagine flying from Berlin to New York with your six year old daughter and your husband's coffin. When you wake up 2-3 hours into the flight, you find your daughter missing. An initial search fails. The pilot (Sean Bean) is called in to ask for a thorough search. The little girl cannot be found.
Add to it that you cannot find your daughter's boarding card in your jacket's pocket, you've been on calming-medicines, none of the fellow passengers remember having seen your daughter aboard, the flight attendant says she did not see anyone next to you before the flight took off....and when they call up the security gates back at Berlin, it is confirmed that nobody by your daughter's name ever boarded the flight.

Are you imagining things or has the whole world suddenly turned against you? How can a six year old disappear from the flight?

Excellent plot, brilliantly shot and Jodie Foster. Any more incentives required to watch?
