Hello, Here the plot of the movie;
Steven (Ryan Phillippe) and Shannon (Rachelle Lefevre) are a young couple that have decided to adopt an orphan after Shannon loses the ability to conceive since a horrific car accident. They contact IRA (Intl Rescue Adoption), an adoption organization run by Reigert (Jacki Weaver), who introduces them to Nina (Briana Roy), who was orphaned after an earthquake in Haiti. Everything seems to be progressing as planned but before the adoption can be finalized, Reigert and Nina vanish and neither Shannon nor Steven can find any way to contact Intl. Rescue Adoption. They discover that they've been the victims of a confidence scheme but rather than give up, they decide to follow after Reigert in the hopes of claiming Nina. Instead, they come across a trio of child traffickers that also hope to find and use Nina for their own purposes, but are also willing to hold Shannon and Steven hostage in the hopes of making even more money.

Hello,

I agree with the literal meaning of reclaim however movie titles are rarely literally translated... You have to watch the movie or know the whole story to be able to come up with a good title that is catchy and talks to the French audience. Maybe it has an official translation in French but I did not find it, so maybe they kept the English title.

But 'Reclaim' is to get something back or to ask to have it back after it has been lost, take away, etc. It seems to me as (Rentrer en possession de ce qui a été prêté, perdu, etc. : Récupérer )
'protéger' is to protect, to defend.
During my last research I found the Full title of the movie as:
Reclaim; Take What's Yours

C'est le sens de "protéger" qui me vient en premier
Mettre à l'abri
