Dir: Guillermo Del Toro|Spain, Mexico, USA|2006|120m|15
Visionary director Guillermo del Toro (Hellboy, Blade 2, The Devil’s Backbone) creates a unique, richly imagined epic with Pan's Labyrinth, a gothic fairy tale set against the postwar era of Franco’s Spain.
Pan's Labyrinth unfolds through the eyes of Ofelia, a young girl uprooted to a remote military outpost commanded by her new stepfather. Powerless and lonely in a place of great danger, Ofelia lives out her own dark fable as she confronts monsters both otherworldly and human after she discovers a neglected labyrinth behind the family home.
There she meets Pan, a fantastical creature who challenges her with three tasks which he claims will reveal her true identity.
