Still, the gripping finale did at least tie up its central mystery: what happened to the five-year-old girl who disappeared during a crowded street parade nearly a decade ago?<\/p>\n
If you were left a little bamboozled by the constant time jumps, here\u2019s a handy guide to exactly what unfolded.<\/p>\n
***The Snow Girl Spoilers Ahead***<\/strong><\/p> After nearly ten years of trying to get to the bottom of Amaya\u2019s abduction, dogged reporter Miren (Milena Smit) finally achieves a breakthrough thanks to the unlikely combination of a VHS repairman and a hairband.<\/p>\n Having stolen the former\u2019s accounts book, she discovers the machine likely to have produced the videotapes proving the youngster is still alive, which belongs to a woman living in the isolated hills. As we know from the previous flashback episode, the woman is Iris (Cecilia Freire), a former patient of Amaya\u2019s fertility doctor mother who, after learning that she couldn\u2019t have children, decided to steal a kid instead.<\/p>\n Having been told that anyone outside the dilapidated house she\u2019s been held captive in for nine years is a threat, the brainwashed Amaya \u2013 now aged 14 \u2013 hides when Miren pays her \u2018mother\u2019 a visit. A desperate Iris, of course, has already killed an inquisitive bank associate to avoid exposing the secret she and her husband (who\u2019s since been splattered in a Final Destination<\/a>-style car accident) are Malaga\u2019s Most Wanted.<\/p>\n Thankfully, Miren leaves the property without stumbling upon the whole truth and therefore also with her life intact. But her presence spooks Iris enough to abandon the property with her \u2018daughter\u2019 later that rain-soaked night. By this point, Miren has recognised the headband the culprit was wearing is the same as Amaya\u2019s in the most recent video footage and is only a few yards behind.<\/p>\n Realising the game is up, Iris decides the only course of action is to drive her and a petrified Amaya off a cliff.<\/p>\n \u201cI won\u2019t let them separate us,\u201d she screams just before crashing through a roadside barrier. Iris immediately dies in the accident, yet miraculously the teen gets out of the vehicle with barely a scratch.<\/p>\n Still loyal to the woman she believes is her mum, Amaya then aims a gun at Miren but following a brief scuffle, she\u2019s restrained until emergency services arrive.<\/p>\n Parents \u00c1lvaro (Ra\u00fal Prieto) and Ana (Loreto Maule\u00f3n) spent an agonising six years not knowing whether their daughter was alive. And then, thanks to the occasional videotapes Iris sent to relieve her guilt, they spent another three years not knowing where she was. Their long-awaited reunion, however, isn\u2019t an immediately joyous occasion.<\/p>\n Traumatised by the loss of both her abductee parents and the bombshell that her whole life is a lie, Amaya initially refuses to engage with her biological mum and dad. She\u2019s actually angry their continued quest to find her resulted in Iris\u2019s death.<\/p>\n But the fact she later allows them to watch cartoons by her side suggests their relationship will slowly be repaired.<\/p>\n Before her super-sleuthing skills finally pay off, Miren becomes a person of interest herself following the suspicious caravan blaze that kills both Luque (Trist\u00e1n Ulloa) and its owner Foster (Stephan Wiks).<\/p>\n She wasn\u2019t short of a motive, that\u2019s for sure.<\/p> The Snow Girl ending explained: One final twist in the Netflix drama<\/strong><\/h2>\n
